City Utilities Transit Services will be participating in Communities in Motion week from June 15-21.
Across the country, public transportation is seeing an increased number of riders. In 2013, CU Transit Services provided 1.4 million rides and CU buses operated over 89,000 hours driving 1.3 million miles providing transportation services to our community.
