GRUNDY-BUCHANAN COUNTY TRANSIT SERVICE OPERATING TIMES MODIFIED FOR SEPTEMBER 2005

Four County Transit, operator of Grundy-Buchanan County Transit Service, will have new operating hours during the month of September due to limited fuel.  Four County Transit is asking riders to bear with them as they make this temporary change due to limited supply of fuel to continue operating fifty hours each week. 

The new operating hours will be to begin at 8:00 a.m. and operate until 11:00 a.m. in the mornings and 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the afternoons Mondays through Fridays.  There will still be two routes, North and South, operating.

Plans are to return to the regular operating hours of 7:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m. in October when hopefully fuel will be more available.

Please contact Four County Transit at 963-1486 or toll-free if long distance at 1-888-656-2272 if you have any questions.

Additional information is available at www.fourcountytransit.org.
