SMART seeks feedback on discontinuation of local service

SMART determines more efficient ways to meet transportation needs in Charbonneau

By MICHELLE MARSTON
South Metro Area Regional Transit ( SMART ) conducted public outreach for the 2016 Transit Master Plan . From public comment , SMART identified a need for fixed route service to the Charbonneau neighborhood .
With additional outreach , SMART heard from neighborhood residents about desired trip destinations and times . In June 2018 , SMART began a pilot shuttle service to the neighborhood to accommodate the need . SMART staff promoted the route through targeted marketing and monitored the effectiveness of the route . After low performance for two years , SMART staff has determined there are more efficient ways to meet the transportation needs of the Charbonneau neighborhood .
