Core Transit aims to be the #1 choice for getting around the region, delivering a transit experience that’s safe, rewarding, dependable, and reliable. 

“Our future success relies on the voices of our daily riders and those who haven’t yet had the chance to hop on board,” said Tanya Allen, Executive Director of Core Transit. “Your feedback isn’t just welcomed; it is vital in shaping a transit system that aligns with the priorities and expectations of our entire community. Together, we can build a transportation network that will have more to offer, for everyone.”  

In the coming month, Core Transit will be out and about, engaging with the community through various avenues, including local events and bus stop pop-ups. These gatherings are perfect opportunities for the community to learn more about the 10-Year Transit Plan, share their thoughts, fill out the survey, and ask questions. Our team will be on hand to listen and ensure everyone’s voice is heard. 

The 10-Year Transit Plan aims to be clear, actionable, and inspiring.
