Why are we changing the Main Street timing mid-semester?

With the transition to the Loops, NMG, SMS, and SMA have experienced difficulties keeping on schedule. To improve our reliability on Main Street, we’re separating the north and south routes, as well as adding a third bus to the south main area.

North Main: Two buses will service NMG on 15 minute frequency until 6:30 PM. From 6:30 PM through 9:30 PM, one bus will provide 30 minute service. 

South Main: Three buses will alternate between SMS and SMA while SMA is in service. This will provide 30 minute frequency on both routes, and 15 minute frequency to the stops that are serviced by both SMS and SMA. From 6:30 PM-9:30 PM, two buses will provide 30 minute service to SMS stops.
