Changes are coming to the Iowa City Transit system this summer, so make sure to attend our virtual presentation to learn more about what we're rolling out soon!
A public presentation about the proposed transit system changes recommended from the Iowa City Area Transit Study will be held at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, April 29, 2021. The presentation will take place via Zoom, and will be streamed live on City Channel 4's Facebook page, YouTube channel, and website.
Presenters will discuss the proposed changes and the timeline for implementation, and City staff will be available to answer questions from Zoom participants following the presentation.
More detailed information on the proposed route and service changes are posted at the Iowa City Area Transit Study website. Proposed changes include:
- New or modified transit routes and schedules
