Comments from the public are a critical component in creating the best transit plan possible. Feedback on the Draft Plan can be presented at the public meetings or by emailing MetroRedesign@cityofmadison.com and/or info@cmnna.org  This Draft Plan was designed to achieve the Transportation Policy and Planning Board’s objective of a new network centered on the “mostly ridership” goal – focusing on fewer routes that are more direct and frequent, while providing coverage where it is needed most.

Changes between the 2019 pre-pandemic Bus Routes and the 2022 Draft Plan for the Crawford, Marlborough and Nakoma neighborhoods.

  • The pre-pandemic Route 19 that had service on Seminole Hwy., Mohawk Dr., Nakoma Rd., Monroe St., UW Campus and Downtown has been replaced with Route D2 with service on Midvale Blvd., Odana Rd., Monroe St., UW Campus, Downtown and the Airport.
  • The 2022 Plan increases weekday frequency of service on Midvale to every 30 minutes and every 15 minutes on Odana Rd. and Monroe St.
  • The 2022 Plan designates that some areas would be a longer walk to transit service and in some cases transit may be too far to walk to.
