| The Northwestern Connecticut Transit District was formed in 1987 and provides service to sixteen towns. The District operates a deviated fixed route service and a rural dial-a-ride service in all towns. Five vehicles are used during deviated fixed route peak service and eight vehicles are used for rural transit dial-a-ride peak service. Two vehicles are used for the Job Access Program. Three years ago, the District changed its bus system throughout the service area by doubling service in certain towns, increasing the frequency of service to senior housing complexes and employing several marketing efforts. In the past year, the District has established a toll free number (1-866-906-7433) and installed "Intransit 2000" to dispatch all ride requests in the 16 area towns served. |
