Mountain Line Braces for Service Cutbacks

Mountain Line Transit Authority is announcing service reductions and elimination of some services beginning July 1, 2009.  These service changes are a result of funding reductions by third party contractors including The District and West Virginia University (WVU).  The District has not renewed their service agreement with the Authority, and WVU has requested some service reductions beginning July 1, 2009.  Routes affected include The District and The District Late Night, the Blue & Gold, and the Orange Line.
