Valley Transit has a new transportation development plan.

The plan calls for the restoration of services that have been cut in recent years due to a lack of available drivers and expansion of services to new shopping and employment centers.

Matthew Stegeman with SRF Consulting Group says users want greater access to grocery stores.

Stegeman also says riders want weeknight service, expanded routes and more buses running on popular routes.

Weeknight bus service and more service hours on Saturdays were cut in recent years. General Manager Ron McDonald says restoration and expansion will require more than just hiring drivers.

Fox Cities Transit Authority member Larry Wurdinger says any expansion of service will require more money from communities served by Valley Transit.
