The City of Columbia invites the public to attend a public open house and bus stop meetings on Thursday, April 20 for the COMO Bus Service Evaluation Project. During the meetings, the public will be able to review and comment on exhibits that describe a series of transit improvement scenarios for the community. Anyone with an interest in the City's transit system is encouraged to attend. There will be no fare charges for all fixed routes and para-transit rides. Shuttles will be available to take remaining attendees home after bus service ends at 8 p.m.
Staff from the City and consultant team will be present to listen to comments and answer questions. Due to the open house structure of the event, attendees do not have to stay for the entire duration. No formal presentations will be provided, so community members are welcome to stop by during any of the scheduled meetings described below.

Background
The City is developing the COMO Bus Service Evaluation Project to ensure that the bus system provides efficient service and meets the needs of community members. The evaluation began during the winter of 2016 and will continue through this spring. During the process, the evaluation team studied the steps taken to implement the recommendations of the 2014 COMO Connect Project.
The current COMO Connect system relies on two core connector routes (1 Black and 2 Gold) with high frequency service and buses traveling in both directions. It also offers nine smaller neighborhood routes (3-11) with lower frequency and a bus traveling in only one direction. The City is coordinating the April 20 meetings, so community members may share thoughts, questions or concerns about transit improvement scenarios.
