• A-line Update and Accessibility to shelters, bus stops and route planning and <br /> their potential use. <br /> Chair Cihacek suggested questions related to this topic included how routes <br /> are determined coming through Roseville; revisit where that bus infrastructure <br /> is located currently (shelters and stops, etc.)related to current routes, and <br /> based on transit planning to-date, how that connects with routes and <br /> infrastructure; where bus stops and signage are placed and those areas not <br /> compatible or difficult to access. <br /> Member Lenz agreed, noting that the A-line was not the only bus line in <br /> Roseville, but the other routes seemed to have been forgotten over the last few <br /> years in developing that route.
