The T to Implement Service Changes to Five Bus Routes on Jan. 28
Fort Worth (Jan. 22, 2007) – The Fort Worth Transportation Authority (The T) will implement service changes on five bus routes effective Sunday, Jan. 28.
The changes involve adding or extending bus trips and slightly adjusting schedules to improve service and connections to the TRE. The changes are to Routes 6, 7, 21 and 41.
In addition to the operational changes, The T also redesigned the timetables for Routes 5a and 5b to make them easier to use and created new external bus signs to help passengers distinguish between 5a and 5b.
Route and schedule changes include:
Route 6 – added later trip at 7:51 p.m. from Hulen Mall to accommodate evening shoppers.
Route 6 – extension to Department of Public Safety Office at Woodway Ave. and Altamesa Blvd on weekdays to serve passengers transacting drivers license business.
Route 7 – Minor schedule changes to allow more time for connections boarding at the Intermodal Transportation Center (ITC).
Route 21 – Added a 9:45 p.m. trip from the Eastside Transfer Center to reduce wait time between the 9:20 p.m. and 10:45 p.m. schedules.
