Project Description

The City of Winston-Salem and WSTA are studying the current bus routes and proposing changes to improve the way you get around, from more frequent bus routes to new technologies! We also have a vision for the future of transit in our community. We know that when it comes to public transit, affordability and reliability are the keys to successful service. YOUR INPUT is very important, so please take a few minutes to answer the questions below. The deadline to answer is November 16, 2024.

Question Title

* 1. Will you or someone you know benefit from the return of night service?

Question Title

* 2. Will you or someone you know benefit from “real-time” information for bus arrival times?

Question Title

* 3. Once the real-time information system is up and running, are you more likely to get bus arrival information for your route:

Question Title

* 4. Will you or someone you know be more likely to pay using the mobile ticketing app in the future, pay using a day, weekly, or monthly pass - or will you be more likely to continue to pay with cash?

The primary goal of WSTA’s Future Vision Plan is to help bus riders get to more jobs in the same amount of time by making routes more direct and frequent. Please tell us how much you agree or disagree with the following 3 statements.

Question Title

* 5. “Having routes that are more direct, with more travel time on major streets and less time in neighborhoods, will help me or someone I know get to more jobs in less time.”

Question Title

* 6. “Having routes that are more frequent, with buses coming every 30 minutes in general, and every 15 minutes on the busiest routes, will help me or someone I know get to more jobs in less time.”

Question Title

* 7. “Routes that are made more direct and spend less time on neighborhood streets may take a little longer to walk to but getting to my destination faster in total walking and bus-riding time makes the longer walk worth it.”

Question Title

* 8. Do you have additional thoughts about the proposed services in WSTA’s Future Vision Plan?

Question Title

* 9. Will the new technology, like mobile ticketing and real-time tracking of the bus, be helpful to you?
