Madison Metro: Dream Big!

With all the talk about trolleys and trains and regional transportation authorities, it seems that the Madison Bus system is being ignored. Well, here’s your opportunity to talk about what you think the future of Madison Metro should look like. Express busses to and from transfer points? Express busses from cities and towns surrounding Madison? 24 hour service? On demand late night service from the transfer points? More weekend service? Or maybe, you just want a bench to sit on at your bus stop. Here’s your chance to dream big and get your ideas into the long range plans for Madison Metro. This announcement comes from Ald. Satya Rhodes-Conway.

Four Public Participation Meetings have been scheduled to get feedback on the work of the Long Range Metro Transit Planning Ad Hoc Committee.

Feedback will be focused on the Midterm Report of the committee. (A complete copy of this Midterm report will be available soon.)
