Thank you for taking this survey about transit service. Canby Area Transit is in the final step of writing its Transit Master Plan – a plan to expand and realign its services to be easier and faster to use. 

We'd like to get your feedback on the Draft Transit Master Plan. This is your opportunity to guide Canby in making the right choices in the coming years. 

What is the Transit Master Plan?
The Transit Master Plan (TMP) lays out potential improvements to Canby’s public transit system that respond to residents’ needs; the City’s goals for mobility, economic opportunity and the environment; and priorities expressed in public input. These improvements could be implemented over the next 3-5 years. During public outreach conducted earlier this year, we learned that top priorities of the community include:

• Additional local service in the City of Canby
• Better weekend and evening service
• More regional service

Based on the input we heard from the public and evaluation of existing routes, this Plan recommends enhancing CAT’s fixed routes by adding new routes and improving existing services. Some of the major improvements recommended for the next five years include: 

• Better frequency. The Canby Loop and part of Route 99X would offer a consistent 30 minute frequency throughout the whole day
• Better local service. The Canby Loop would run in both directions every 30 minutes.
• Better service on Saturdays. Route 99X (from Canby to Oregon City) would offer 30 minute frequency on Saturday, which is twice as much as today.
• Better regional connections. Route 99X would provide service to downtown Woodburn about every hour. Route 99X would provide service to Oregon City and Milwaukie, all the way to the Milwaukie/Main Street MAX Orange Line Station. CAT would also add service to SMART Route 3X, resulting in a bus every 30 minutes between Wilsonville and Canby 

And here is a chart showing recommended hours and frequencies of each route:
