What is MOVE 2025?
We’re putting our Fall 2025 service changes in your hands. This is your system. Your ride. So, it’s your choice. We'll provide the options, you'll tell us what changes work best for you. Here’s your chance to tell us where you’d like to see improvements, and what trade-offs you’re willing to make to get you where you're going.
Why does MOVE 2025 need my input?
We’ve been listening to your feedback: some riders want more frequent service. Others want more coverage. Bus operators see ways to make their routes more reliable. Businesses would like changes that benefit their employees. Add to that new housing developments, entertainment hot spots, and changing traffic patterns, plus our incredibly detailed analytics on all things bus, and you’ll understand why we need your help! There are dozens of ways MCTS can make changes while staying within our budget. We have come up with several different route ideas but we need to hear from you: which of these options matter most.
