The City of Madison gave a presentation to the Sun Prairie Transit Commission (linked above) of a potential option for local Metro bus service to Sun Prairie, that would connect to Bus Rapid Transit Service at the Park-and-Ride facility off Reiner Road. The route was drafted by Jarrett Walker + Associates, a nationally recognized transit planning firm working with Madison Metro on its Transit Network Redesign. The draft route is based off key factors such as proximity to major destinations and employers, areas of high population and employment density, and travelling along streets most suitable for accommodating buses.
It is critical to note this route is a potential option for local transit bus service, and not by any means a final decision. The final form of the route will be ultimately formed by an extensive stakeholder and public engagement process throughout the Spring and Summer of 2022. More details on this process are included above.
