Partnership Between Durango Transit and Road Runner Transit Offers Rides to Three Springs

Durango Transit received a reduction in transit grant funding this year as a result of a policy change at the state level resulting in service changes going into effect Monday, May 7, 2018. The key changes to Durango Transit service affecting Three Springs are:

• Elimination of the Three Springs/Mercy Route
• Partnership with Road Runner Transit to provide service to Three Springs/Mercy at no additional cost to Durango Transit pass holders
• All routes extended to 7:00 am – 9:00 pm service, year round
• Extended Opportunity Bus service (7: 00 am – 9:00 pm, 7 days a week year round)
• No service days on City holidays.
