January 2016 Service Change Public InformationCOTA BUS
This presentation details COTA service changes that will take effect on Monday, January 4, 2016. Join us for two public meetings on December 10 & 15 at COTA.
The document outlines an evaluation framework for prioritizing transit investment opportunities through 2050 for the Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA). The framework includes a two-tiered evaluation process. Tier 1 will evaluate and screen high capacity transit corridors based on criteria tied to community values like connectivity, equity, growth, and sustainability. Corridors will be rated high, medium, or low. Tier 2 will evaluate specific transit projects within prioritized corridors. The framework is intended to identify a prioritized list of projects that advance regional goals and can be well-positioned for federal funding.
The Transit System Redesign (TSR) was developed through a comprehensive review of the existing bus system. This modernization plan is aimed at crafting a system that better serves our customers and stakeholders, while remaining within COTA's current and projected funding limits.
COTA is hosting six public meetings in October and November 2015 to share the final TSR proposals. This presentation was provided at each meeting. Check out the Maps & Documents page at cota.com/tsr to view line maps and learn more information about the system as a whole.
The document provides information about COTA NextGen, a long-range planning effort by COTA to identify public transportation needs and opportunities over the next 35 years in central Ohio. It summarizes Phase I outreach activities, presents a draft vision that includes potential service enhancements to existing routes and high capacity transit corridors. It outlines next steps which include continued outreach, evaluation of corridors, and developing a draft plan for public input. The document encourages readers to provide their priorities by taking an online survey.

NextGen Project Advisory Group Meeting 2 - May 20, 2015COTA BUS
The purpose of the meeting is to update the Project Advisory Group about project status and work completed over the last two months; summarize feedback received to date regarding community priorities and values and geographic needs for transit investments; discuss findings of the technical needs assessment; and discuss next steps and application of public input and technical needs.
Over the past 40 years, central Ohio has changed tremendously. Communities expanded throughout the region, growing away from Downtown and recently, returning to neighborhoods around Downtown. COTA's bus network has kept up with this growth through incremental changes, but remains focused on Downtown.
The Transit System Redesign (TSR) was developed through a comprehensive review of the existing COTA bus system, conducted by international transit system efficiency experts IBI Group. This plan is constrained by COTA's current and projected funding levels through 2017.
