A public meeting focused on the public transit needs of Marion County was held Wednesday.
Presentations by the Heart of Iowa Regional Transit Authority and Iowa DOT shared the state of public transit in Iowa and meeting facilitators gathered community input about unmet needs. Kristin Haar with the DOT says regional transit is more complex than it sometimes appears to riders. The meeting worked to clear up common misconceptions about the service and addressed requests for weekend hours and expanded service between metro areas.
