<br /> Project Description/Scope Enter below a summary of the project amendment and impact on approved plan.

<br /> daytimes,inclusive of run-time,schedule recovery,and layover time to improve reliability and on-time performance.This request is a partial year of incremental costs in FY26.The
<br /> amendment shows continuing costs through FY30.By that time,the Triangle Mobility Hub will be complete,shortening the length of Route 800 and eliminating the need for these
<br /> additional hours.
<br /> While this request includes a cost in Q4 FY2026 and from FY27-30,GoTriangle proposes to make the request cost neutral in the multi-year operating plan.This would be
<br /> seeomplished by delaying a planned service improvement to Route 400 from FY29 to FY32
<br /> Route 800 provides all-day/every-day regional connections along NC-54 and 1-40 between UNC Hospitals and Regional Transit Center and serves people traveling between Chapel
<br /> Hill,Southpoint,RTP,and Raleigh at off-peak times.Substantial growth continues to occur along the corridor,driving demand for Durham County residents,employees,and visitors
<br /> to travel along this corridor.With approval of the RTP 3.0 rezoning,it is more important than ever to deliver dependable,on-time service to provide transportation alternatives
<br /> residents,employees and visitors to RTP.Route 800 expansion service includes:
<br /> -FY18:Weekday midday frequency was increased from 60 to 30 minutes.
<br /> -

<br /> top priority from riders through Transit Plan funded surveys and engagement efforts.If this request is not funded either 1)Route 800 will continue to have insufficient resources to
