Talk to staff about proposed August transit changes

Chapel Hill Transit is preparing service changes to begin in August 2020. Staff will be available to discuss these changes at four public events:

Monday, Jan. 27, from 4-6 p.m. at the UNC Student Union, West Lounge

Tuesday, Jan. 28, from 4-6 p.m. at the Chapel Hill Public Library, in Meeting Room A

Thursday, Jan. 30, from 9-11 a.m. at UNC Hospitals, Conference Room A (above Starbucks; employees and patients only)

Friday, Jan 31, from 9-11 a.m. at the Seymour Center

These service changes are products of Chapel Hill's Short Range Transit Plan, which was made with public input in 2017 and 2018. Service changes are meant to improve service frequency on major transit routes, maintain transit access to the communities we serve, simplify the bus system and improve weekend service, using our existing financial resources.
