Conduct a regional transit planning study for the Western Connecticut Planning Region. The Study will evaluate existing public bus transit systems, networks, and services; develop a ridership profile, survey, origin-destination matrix, and congruency analysis; identify gaps and opportunities; develop service alternatives; and prepare findings and recommendations for phased implementation. The purpose of the Study is to identify feasible, cost-effective improvements to public bus service in the Western Connecticut Planning Region. The Study is not intended to prepare analysis for its own sake, nor to produce a report that is disconnected from implementation. Improvements may include new or expanded service where warranted and feasible, but may also include route simplification, schedule coordination, transfer improvements, reliability improvements, stop consolidation or relocation, passenger information improvements, fare or payment coordination, better marketing, interagency coordination, institutional partnerships, service reallocation, or other actions that improve the usefulness, efficiency, reliability, legibility, or customer experience of existing services.
