Metro unveils preliminary transit plan | Community Spirit

CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) – Since early this year, Metro has been working on the development of a short-term and long-term transit improvement plan.  Metro collected feedback through public meetings in the spring, telephone research, on-board surveys, ridership tracking by bus stop, regional travel pattern analysis, and on-line and written surveys to assure that the plan reflects the needs and wants of the community.

The preliminary plan is now ready to share for additional feedback before the plan is finalized in the next few months.

Interested individuals may comment on Metro’s preliminary transit plan on-line at www.go-metro.com beginning Nov. 13.  Metro will also offer the following public meetings about the preliminary plan:
