1/18/22 – Has Shen ever considered doing the “Test Drive A Bus” event on a weekend or later in the afternoon? I know many interested people who cannot go during the morning during a weekday. There may be better attendance and outcomes from an off-time event. – Community Member
January 18th, 2022 by lindsay.valentiA. Transportation has considered an event later in the day but decided against it because of the amount of traffic on campus. As a department, we will look at a weekend event in the near term since there is interest. Staff could also do a one-on-one Test Drive if they would like to call us. Transportation can make arrangements and work around their schedules.
