IndyGo adjusting routes in June due to driver shortages
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — IndyGo will make some route and schedule adjustments in June in response to ongoing driver shortages.
IndyGo will roll out what it calls “major service modifications” starting Sunday, June 11.
“Many of these changes represent a big step forward when it comes to completing IndyGo’s network redesign as part of its future service plan. They will provide more efficient service in the areas that need it most while streamlining service where ridership is low,” IndyGo said in a release.
Riders that will experience changes include Routes 2, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 26, 28, 31, 38, 55, and 902.
Routes 11, 26, 38, and 902 will see what IndyGo calls “temporary frequency changes.”
A new route, Route 56, will be introduced for the first time. Routes 14 and 55 will be consolidated into Route 56. Route 56 will take over Route 16’s service to downtown Indy, servicing downtown Beech Grove along Main Street.
IndyGo will host three information sessions in May to share details about the routes and answer questions from riders:
