Casper, Wyoming (Friday, September 29, 2023) – Casper Area Transit, operated by the City of Casper, will shorten service on the “Red Route” on Tuesday, October 3, and Wednesday, October 4. The daily schedule is as follows:

• Monday, October 2, 2023 – regular hours – 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.

• Saturday, October 7, 2023 – regular hours – 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

According to Transit Manager Scott Dresher, Casper Area Transit temporarily adjusted its “Red Route” hours to impact fewer customers as the Red is the LINK’s least traveled route. “We understand that, unfortunately, this temporary adjustment to hours may affect our customers’ lives—their ability to get to work, appointments, and get food and necessary items, and we apologize for the inconvenience,” said Dresher.

Transit’s ASSIST door-to-door service is not affected by the change.
