CityGo adjusts Purple Route due to increase of K-State Salina students

Posted Sep 06, 2021 1:09 PM

A slight adjustment to the CityGo Purple Route will take place starting on Tuesday.

Because of the increased population of K-State Salina students, the stop at K-State Salina, 2310 Centennial, will once again be a regular stop on the CityGo Purple Route.  Previously, this stop was by request only.

The Regular Route will stop at :40 after each hour each day during normal operating hours.  Those hours are 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.  The Peak Route will stop at :10 after each hour, during peak times of 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. 

A CityGo Familiarization class is also available to passengers interested in learning about riding the bus.  The next class will be held on Sept. 23, 2021, at 9:30 a.m.  More information and sign ups can be found at www.salinacitygo.com under Guide & Go Travel Training.

The website and maps will be updated soon with these changes.
