Have your say on Cochrane transit

The Town of Cochrane is seeking feedback from the public regarding the Town’s Regional Transit System and its plans to integrate enhanced services into the fixed local COLT routes. The Town, in partnership with Southland Transportation is reviewing user needs, hoping to find out more about why residents use the service, and where they are going. The feedback collected will be compiled and used by the project team as resource to help them formulate their recommendations regarding regional transport, routes and fares. The initial plan will connect the new Transit and Innovation Hub to four location in Calgary, including the Brentwood LRT Station, the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology, Foothills Hospital and a potential summer route to Banff.
