 Subject: MASSMAIL - MTD ROUTE REVISIONS EFFECTIVE JANUARY 2, 2008

Effective Wednesday, January 2, 2008, several MTD routes were revised; no 
MTD buses are operating on Mathews Avenue south of Green Street. The 
revised routes are the 2 Red Weekday; 20 Red Saturday; 8 Orchard Downs 
Weekday; 80 Orchard Downs Evening, Saturday, and Sunday; 21 Quad; and 24 
Scamp. Beginning January 2, the portion of these routes operating along 
Mathews Avenue south of Green Street in Urbana was shifted one block east 
to Goodwin Avenue.  These changes affect only the routing. There are no 
changes in the operational timetables of these routes, and timepoint 
information in the published schedule book is unchanged.
The MTD route changes are being made in cooperation with the University of 
Illinois and City of Urbana. Shifting buses from Mathews Avenue south of 
Green Street east to Goodwin Avenue is consistent with strategies 
developed by the Campus Area Transportation Study (CATS) for improved 
pedestrian and bicycle access and safety in the campus district. The MTD 
continues to work closely with these partners to ensure that our services 
are compatible with their transportation and mobility plans.
Revised route information is available on the MTD website at cumtd.com, 
and route and schedule information are available in real time via the 
MTD STOPwatch online and text messaging services. As always, riders may 
telephone the MTD for assistance or up-to-date information at 217.384.8188.
