JEFFTRAN Route Adjustments (Press Release)

The Green (High St. East) route and Gold (High St. West) route will alternate, forming one combined route.
The Black (Capitol Mall) route and Orange (Missouri Blvd.) route will alternate, forming one combined route.
The Blue (Southwest) route and Red (Business 50 East) route will alternate, forming one combined route.

A timetable of the adjusted system can be found on the JEFFTRAN website.
The adjusted routes will take effect on February 6^th.
