EPHRATA — Grant County Transit Authority will hold meetings in mid-February to get feedback from the community about their transit service in the county.
The meetings, which will be held in Moses Lake, Ephrata, Quincy and Grand Coulee, will be about two hours in length and touch on topics such as route changes, schedule changes, morning start of service, evening end of service and new routes and services.
GTA Interim General Manager Brandy Heston said the meetings are purely to get feedback on what the community would like to see from GTA; the organization will not be bringing any plans or ideas to present at the meetings. This is to help GTA put together its plan for the future as it works with a consultant to conduct a system-wide transportation analysis, she explained.
Heston said that those who cannot attend the meetings, but who would still like to give input, can email their feedback to gta@granttransit.com.
