NextGen Transit Plan Review of Previous Plans

NextGen Phases:

Phase 1: Cost Neutral Service Improvements (12 to 18 months)

Phase one represents cost neutral service improvements that GMT can achieve in the short term. These include:

Simplifying service; by making it faster and more direct, operating service consistently, and eliminating low ridership variants
Improving the schedule; by revising service frequencies and spans to better match demand, operating service with regular/clock face headways, and adjusting service frequencies and span
Changing service type to provide more convenient service; by providing complementary ADA paratransit in rural counties, and converting some Flex/Demand Response services to fixed-route
Improving public information; by renumbering and renaming routes to improve legibility and avoid confusion, and improving brochures and maps

Phase 2: Service Enhancements (2 – 5 years as funding becomes available)

Phase two will focus on improvements in service span and frequency in areas that are already served – based on findings from market analysis and evaluation of existing services.

Phase 3: Future Expansion – 5 to 10 years

During the course of NextGen many service expansion proposals were analyzed. Proposals that are not currently feasible may become so in the future, and further analysis will be a part of GMT’s next long term Transit Development Plan.
