ORANGE COUNTY <br /> SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN <br /> HILL TO HILL CONSOLIDATION PHASE 1 <br /> Short Term <br /> Background: The Orange-Chapel Hill Connector provides midday and local coverage between Chapel Hill and Hillsborough, while <br /> GoTriangle Route 420 operates during the peak commute hours only and with fewer local stops. The similar but still deviating route <br /> patterns can confuse riders, and there is some service redundancy in the current <br /> B6 <br /> schedule. <br /> Strategy Overview: When GoTriangle shifts Route 420 to run on Highway 40 <br /> after the completion of construction, the Orange-Chapel Hill Connector will also <br /> shift to match the alignment of Route 420 exactly, with the same stops. Local 7- Hillsborough <br /> connections in Hillsborough can be made to both Hillsborough Circulator loops. ° <br /> This Phase does not fully consolidate the two routes, and rather focuses on 65 <br /> Wat°,s, 86 <br /> running them along the same route pattern and to be less redundant, allowing for <br /> full consolidation in the future. <br /> Existing OCH Proposed OCH <br /> G� <br /> Qa <br /> ae <br /> Span of Service ORANGE 0 <br /> Monday to Friday 8:30 AM —4:30 PM 8:30 AM — 3:30 PM 66 <br /> Frequency Eubanks <br /> EuOanks ftd <br /> Monday to Friday 60 minutes 60 minutes ° <br /> HOnestea <br /> es <br /> s, <br /> DURHAM <br /> Chapel Hill <br /> s _ <br /> Hill to Hill Consolidation Phase l fFrz^pm Sal <br /> Carrboro <br /> —Proposed Orange-Chapel Hill Connector Ra,°i9h qy <br /> —Future GoTriangle Route 42D(Peak Only) <br /> --Current Orange-Chapel Hill Connector °y <br /> Nelson\Nygaard Consulting Associates 12 <br />
