The long-awaited expansion of the public transit system in North Battleford is about to be implemented April 1 and the City of North Battleford is inviting people to learn more about it.
Public engagement meetings are to take place Feb. 4 at Frontier Mall between 2 and 6 p.m., and again Feb. 11 at Discovery Co-op Territorial Place Mall from noon to 6 p.m.
The expansion has been in the discussion stage for a while, with the City working with Al Love, transit manager, on the plans.
According to the City’s news release they are looking to implement a two-bus single route system to expand the service to more of the city, specifically to Kildeer Park and Fairview Heights. They also are seeking shorter ride times.
Also planned are new locations to purchase bus passes and more fare options available to the public, all to be implemented by April 1.
The public is encouraged to attend the meetings to review the proposals and also raise concerns and ask questions.
