GO Transit, the public transportation service in the Greater Oshkosh area, announces it will implement route modifications effective Aug. 1. Policy updates and fare changes will also take place by late summer 2024.
Driven by rider, operator and community feedback, these modifications were approved by the city of Oshkosh Transportation Committee and Common Council. These initiatives are part of the broader Oshkosh Transit Development Plan, which is aimed to enhance transit service efficiency and effectiveness.
“At GO Transit, we’ve listened to our community and are evolving to better cater to our riders and the city,” said Steve Tomasik, transit operation manager at GO Transit. “The route modifications and fare changes demonstrate our commitment to continuously elevate the overall travel experience and provide dependable and efficient service for all.”
On Aug. 1, modifications will be made to routes 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7, with additional changes to “paired/interlined” routes at the downtown Oshkosh transit center to minimize transfers.
By the end of summer 2024, regular one-way fares will increase to $2 per one-way trip, and senior and disabled fares will be $1. A monthly pass will be available for $40 which offers unlimited rides per month. These fares are consistent with public transportation systems in the area. In addition, GO Transit will introduce new day passes that will cost $4 per day and offer unlimited rides on the specified day.
