Since 2016, Link Transit has provided transit service to Burlington, Gibsonville, Elon, Graham, and the Alamance County Courthouse and Community College. In 2021, we provided more than 55,000 trips for riders across our 35 square mile service area. Now we are looking ahead, to examine what is working, what could be better, and how we can best serve our community in the future. The creation of a Five-Year Transit Development Plan (TDP) and an accompanying Facility Study will allow Link Transit to do just that.

Over the next year, we will be working with transit planning experts, our funding partners, and community members to prepare a Transit Development Plan and Facility Study. This study will include:

• Evaluating our system and services
• Developing an operations, marketing, and financial plan
• Recommending capital improvements
• Creating a Service Implementation Plan
• Identifying sites for a new transit facility

Public Outreach

To engage and receive feedback from stakeholders in the community, the project team has completed numerous public outreach events.

• Three focus groups were held with employers & non-profits, community-based organizations, and neighboring communities to gain info on each of their unique perspectives. 
• Pop-up engagement events were held at the Downtown Transfer Center and the North Park Library to engage with riders. 
• The team also collected info by riding Link routes and facilitating discussions and surveys with riders.
