Summary

At a KTA meeting, Director Thor reported a roughly 3% ridership decline and 85.4% on-time performance; the authority will publish notice for a public hearing next month on changes to the downtown connector and Route 16 and commissioners discussed forming a subcommittee to explore a possible transit funding referendum.

The KTA voted to approve last month’s minutes and met substantive business including an update on system performance and the scheduling of a public hearing next month on two route changes.

Director Thor, the authority’s director, told commissioners, “We did see a slight decrease in ridership last month. Little out of the norm for the last 24 months,” and said the system remains “at 85.4% for on time performance.” Thor said staff will investigate the roughly 3% decline—“we're gonna dig into that and have more information at the next meeting.”
