Chapel Hill Transit continues to pursue a peak period operating scheme for fixed route bus service. <br /> During these peak periods, from approximately 6:30 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. until 6:00 p.m., <br /> additional buses are added to specific routes to reduce headways and increase efficiency. In addition, <br /> tripper buses are added to individual routes to relieve overcrowding along specific segments during the <br /> peak periods. <br /> A special shared ride FEEDER service (weekdays) which is demand-responsive is also provided <br /> by Chapel Hill Transit. Shared ride FEEDER is an extension of transit service to many areas of town <br /> which do not receive regular bus service. It is available between 7:00 a.m. and 5:45 p.m. Trips are <br /> provided between designated bus stops in the FEEDER zones and the nearest bus routes or to another <br /> FEEDER zone. <br /> HUMAN SERVICE AGENCIES <br /> Listed below are the human service agencies and governmental entities that were sent surveys in <br /> the month of November, 1994.
