Foothill Transit Forward
Comprehensive Operational Analysis
Project Overview
Foothill Transit Forward is a Comprehensive Operational Analysis (COA) that will evaluate the current Foothill Transit system and determine where improvements can be made. The goal is to create a service plan that will make Foothill Transit a more convenient and useful transportation option across the San Gabriel Valley. The first step was to examine current service by reaching out to our customers and local stakeholders, assessing the transit landscape, and analyzing each bus line. Feedback received from the public and these key stakeholders has been reviewed and used for consideration in the development of new proposed network changes.
We need you as our partner! Public input is critical to the success of Foothill Transit Forward. We want to learn about your experience to understand how Foothill Transit can better serve you. There are several opportunities for the public to provide input on proposed network changes. Sign-up for our mailing list to receive project updates and information on opportunities to share your input.
