While the RTC is not yet able to return to full service levels, transit service changes will include increased frequency, updated schedules, and other minor changes in an effort to improve service quality.<\/p>\r\n<p>\u201cAs we continue to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and a labor shortage on our transit operations, we are restoring more transit service for customers throughout our valley,\u201d said Francis Julien, RTC deputy chief executive officer. \u201cWe have an obligation to our community to ensure all of our riders have access to equitable and efficient service, and we recognize that recent reductions in service have affected our customers\u2019 daily lives. As the workforce allows, we will work to bring back full weekday service as part of a future service change. We continue to ask riders to please not blame any delay in service on your bus driver, who is working hard to cover extra shifts to try to provide you with reliable service.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Service updates include:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Routes 105, 110, 206, 208, 215, 217, BHX, &amp; DVX will have increased frequency to improve wait times for customers.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Route 206 will serve all stops at this time &#8211; no blue\/gold designation.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Routes 104, 106, 108, 109, 113, 117, 119, 122, 203, &amp; 214 will have new schedules to improve timeliness and reliability.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Route 103 will have a new schedule to resume serving the Mobility Training Center during business hours.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Routes 210, 212, &amp; 221 will have miscellaneous minor schedule changes.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>At this time, there will be no routing changes \u2013 only schedule changes to improve performance.
