Service Changes

Service changes may include modifications to frequency, schedules, trip times, routing or stop locations. COTA modifies service three times per year on the first Monday of January, May and September.


Public Meetings

To ensure all those within our communities have an opportunity to understand the decisions we make at COTA and provide input, we conduct several meetings throughout the year and encourage the public to attend. Meetings are held in person at COTA’s Downtown Office located at 33 N. High St. and online through Facebook Live .

Can’t make it? Submit feedback at COTA.com/contact to suggest how we can improve COTA’s service.
