Cobb County hosts final public comment virtual meeting for service changes

Cobb County residents have a final opportunity to voice their opinions on proposed changes to commuter and green circulator routes before the public comment period closes on May 9. During a recent virtual meeting, officials from Cobb DOT and CobbLinc provided updates on the ongoing process, which includes a completed service equity analysis and a public hearing held on April 22.

The Cobb County Board of Commissioners is expected to review these service changes later this month, with a decision anticipated before the end of May. If approved, the new routes will take effect in June, impacting daily commutes for many residents.

Officials emphasized the importance of community feedback, encouraging residents to continue submitting questions and comments. They assured attendees that all input will be considered before the board makes its final decision. For those interested in staying informed, updates will be available on the Cobb County Board of Commissioners webpage, and residents can reach out via email for more information.

This initiative reflects Cobb County's commitment to enhancing public transportation services and ensuring that changes meet the needs of the community. As the deadline approaches, residents are urged to participate in shaping the future of local transit options.
