Jackson County Mass Transit proposes once‑weekly Makanda pickup
Summary
Jackson County Mass Transit (Saluki Express) has proposed a once‑weekly rural pickup for Makanda—possibly on Thursdays—and would like to present details to the village board in October; the Village Hall was suggested as a convenient pickup location.
President Tina Shingleton told the board that a representative identified only as 'Shawn' from Jackson County Mass Transit, which operates Saluki Express, has proposed extending Fix Routes to rural areas with a likely one‑time‑per‑week pickup, possibly on Thursdays. "He would like to come to a Board meeting, possibly in October, to present," Shingleton said.
Shawn suggested the Boardwalk as a possible pickup and delivery spot, but Shingleton said Village Hall would probably work better because parking is limited at the Boardwalk. No date was set for the presentation; Shawn will contact the president with a proposed meeting date.
