Board approves MCTS Move 2025 recommended route plan
Summary
Milwaukee County supervisors voted to adopt the Milwaukee County Transit System’s Move 2025 recommended route plan, approving the transit operator’s proposed changes as presented to the board.
The Milwaukee County Board on June 26 approved the Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) Move 2025 recommended route plan.
Item 35 on the board docket, presented by the Department of Transportation and interim MCTS leadership, requested board approval to implement MCTS’s Move 2025 recommended route changes. The committee had recommended adoption and the full board approved the measure on a roll call recorded as 17 ayes, 0 noes.
The transcript records no substantive floor amendment or extended debate on the plan during the adoption vote; the clerk recorded unanimous passage. The transit plan was described in committee materials (not reproduced verbatim in the transcript) as the agency’s recommended approach to route adjustments for 2025; the board’s action authorizes MCTS to implement the plan as submitted.
Agency staff and supervisors discussed the agency’s recent fiscal context earlier in the meeting (including a projection of an MCTS operating deficit cited by supervisors), but the vote on the Move 2025 plan was taken as presented and passed without recorded dissent.
Implementation and rider impacts — including specific route changes, service hours and timing — were not detailed in floor remarks during the meeting. Riders and advocates seeking particulars should consult MCTS’s published Move 2025 plan and the Department of Transportation materials referenced in the board packet for exact route‑level changes and timetables.
