TANK to hold Public Meeting on Redesign of Bus System
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Date: August 20, 2019
TANK to hold Public Meeting on Redesign of Bus System
The public is invited to comment and provide input on proposed redesign of the transit system. The Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky (TANK) is undertaking a System Redesign Study to help re-imagine the agency’s current bus route network structure. TANK invites the public to attend a Public Meeting at the Covington Career Center (1324 Madison Avenue, Covington) on August 29 between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. The venue is located on TANK Route #7.
The purpose of the meeting is to gather input on the proposed redesign of the bus system and to hear comments about current service and future needs. The meeting will be open house style with a brief presentation given at 4:30, 5:30 and 6:30 p.m.
TANK staff and their consultant team will present a brief presentation to explain the redesign process and goals of the study. Outside of the presentation times, participants will be able to view, at their leisure, exhibit boards and bus network maps at several stations. Staff and consultants will be available to discuss the study and answer questions. Comments and desired outcomes will be captured via a brief survey and comment cards at each station.
The input received from the meeting will be used to assist the consultant team in identifying, prioritizing, and developing a re imagined bus transit system that will serve the needs of the Northern Kentucky community, providing more efficient and cost effective service that is supported by robust ridership. TANK’s goal is to provide community-supported transit to customers with varying needs and to support the continued job growth in the region. Collectively and with public input, TANK wants to ensure safe, convenient, and accessible public transportation for the areas residents, workers, and visitors that want and need to use it.
A second public meeting will be held later this year to present the draft Redesign Study plan and obtain comments.
Delays expected due to President Trump's visit Thursday
President Trump will be in Cincinnati on Thursday, August 1, 2019 at U.S. Bank Arena.
Please be aware that is it likely that all of the interstates (I-75, I-275 and I-471), in addition to some side roads, will experience congestion and partial closures before, during and after this visit. In addition, it is likely that many of the bridges will experience full or partial closures as well.
TANK is committed to being as responsive as we can be during this inevitable traffic congestion. We will add vehicle resources to help accommodate the expected traffic delays and keep routes running as close to schedule as possible. We will be operating within what is allowed, as dictated by local authorities. Although we do not have exact details at this time, we will post any information to our Facebook and Twitter page as we receive it.
Thank you in advance for your patience. And thanks for riding with TANK.
