City Of Tucson News Sun Systems Comprehensive Operation Analysis - Public Input Requested

Government and Politics

January 30, 2023

From: City Of Tucson

The City of Tucson, in partnership with the Pima Association of Governments (PAG), is evaluating all aspects of Sun Tran, Sun Link, Sun Express, and Sun Shuttle services throughout Tucson and the greater Tucson area to determine potential improvements to create a more equitable, effective and efficient transit network. This analysis is called a Comprehensive Operational Analysis (COA). The City and PAG are requesting public input on these systems to ensure the future transit network better responds to community needs.
