LTD Adding More Frequent Service, Longer Hours

Sept. 3, 2015

Effective Sept. 6, Lane Transit District (LTD) will begin providing more service to the community based on public input, resulting in less wait time and more late night buses.

“We’re very excited to improve the service to our passengers,” says Ron Kilcoyne, general manager of LTD. “The public provided great feedback during last year’s review process, and more frequent routes with longer service hours were at the top of the request list.”

LTD makes adjustments to its system three times a year, based on a yearly review and input from the community. The largest of these changes occurs in September, timed for the large influx of students returning for a new school year. This month, the majority of LTD’s bus routes are improving to provide more trips throughout the day. Additionally, Route 12 is being extended north on Gateway to serve the new Veterans Administration Clinic on Chad Drive.
