Whose input is missing?
Shift workers and drivers can challenge the routes before choices are locked. Researchers and officials can test the demand assumptions.

What needs your input
Which three routes qualify first, rural coverage, and the funding path.
PUBLIC NEED
People who work outside standard commute hours cannot reliably reach major employment centers by public transit.
Desired outcome
Reliable service that aligns with shift changes while improving geographic access and publishing performance data.
Run a one-year extended-hours transit pilot on three high-need routes.
Routes would be chosen using documented shift schedules, rider demand, and geographic access gaps. Reliability would be reported monthly, with a separate rural access review after six months.
