The Regional Transportation District (RTD) Board has adopted a Strategic Budget Plan which calls for a reduction of over $12 million in services for the 2012 budget – including proposed service changes to the JUMP bus route to/from Erie. The proposed service changes for the JUMP are as follows: “Discontinue service on 95th Street, Baseline and US 287. Alternate is Route 225. Discontinue midday service east of 111th Street to the Erie Recreation Center. Minor schedule adjustments.”
At the September 20th RTD Board meeting the Board moved the proposals to public hearings. Below is a list of five scheduled Public Hearings closest to the Town of Erie.
