This is an extensive redesign scenario, based on the principle of optimizing service within the existing service area and eliminating inefficiencies in previous service design. Implementation of this alternative continues to improve the quality of Transfort operations as well as increase the production of the Transfort system. Model analysis estimates nearly a doubling of ridership compared to existing Transfort service. Figure 4 in this report shows this proposed scenario.

This scenario begins to put in place several improvements for the longer-term preferred 2010 Scenario:

  • Providing University access through the campus with frequent services around the periphery of CSU, within easy walking distance of major activity centers on campus;
  • Introducing crosstown services via Route 2;
  • Improving service on the West Elizabeth corridor;
  • Maintaining the level of service frequency in the Mason Corridor;
  • Restoring service levels along West Prospect to the University;
  • Maintaining the improved simplified routing identified in Scenario 1 for Route 5.
  • Maintaining the current level of night service; and
  • Providing 30-minute service frequencies on Laporte and Elizabeth, eliminating less productive service on W. Vine.
