BLOOMINGTON – Due to the continued labor shortage, Connect Transit is temporarily reducing weekend service, beginning Sunday, December 18.
Connect Transit says the reductions are their way of providing reliability and stability to their service.
Service will be reduced in the early morning and late afternoon when some routes have the least ridership to limit the impact on most passengers.
Each route will start and end based on current weekend ridership trends, according to a release.
The company says the Redbird Express and Sapphire Routes will not be affected.
All routes will be finished by 8 p.m. on Saturdays and 7 p.m. on Sundays.
