TCAT Fall Schedule Effective Aug. 22

August 13th, 2010

Fall service went into effect Aug. 22, along with minor changes to better serve ridership.

After a successful trial period over the summer, TCAT will continue Route 51 service on Saturday and Sunday to Maple Avenue.

Though fall service generally begins Aug. 22, schedules will vary on dates to accommodate arriving students. They are as follows:
·         The Route 92 will return to service on Friday, Aug. 20, with the route being changed to travel on Dearborn Road to Wycoff and Highland roads. The Route 92 will also travel on Thurston Avenue to Wait Avenue to serve passengers at Balch and Risley halls.
·         The Route 93 will continue to travel down Cradit Farm Road and onto Thurston Avenue to accommodate riders at Balch Hall. Also, Route 93's Sunday service will resume on Sunday, Aug. 22.
·         The Route 22, which provides summer service between Green Street and local parks only in the summer, will no longer run after Friday, Aug. 20.
·         Route 30's weekend service will resume on Saturday, Aug. 21.
·         Route 31 will resume its 10:40 p.m. trip departing from Green Street on Monday, Aug. 23.
·         Route 82 will go back to operating every 15 minutes, as opposed to every 30 minutes, starting Friday, Aug. 20.
·         The Route 83 will resume a modified schedule on Friday, Aug. 20 with service from West Campus to Central Campus. Full service goes into effect Monday, Aug. 23.
·         Thurston Avenue is now open with Routes 10 and 30 running normally. 
As a reminder, The Shops at Ithaca Mall notified TCAT that it is no longer permitted to stop outside Target department store citing alleged damage buses have caused the roadway there. Instead, the bus is now stopping at the TCAT bus shelter area in front of the Sear's department store.
