The Chatham Area Transit (CAT) Board of Directors approved the agency's Master Transit Plan this week. The plan outlines a bolder and more advanced vision for CAT, as the agency addresses the evolving mobility needs of Chatham County.
The initiative, in partnership with Chatham Connects, strategizes goals to develop regional mobility opportunities, including considering new ways to offer public transportation.
The project scope includes evaluation and recommendations of short-term network and route changes, as well as the development for longer-term infrastructure and investment strategies.
“We are grateful for the partnership of Chatham Connects and the partnerships from our Board of Directors, local leaders, community stakeholders, neighborhood associations and our riders for their invaluable feedback that made this Master Transit Plan a reality,” said CAT Executive Director and CEO Faye DiMassimo. “We are excited for what the future holds at CAT and the future of public transportation in our region.”
The final Master Transit Plan report can be found at CAT's website.
