From RIPTA's 'Destinations' e-newsletter:

Winter Service Changes Start January 19th

RIPTA’s winter service changes will take effect on Saturday, January 19, 2008.

This season’s changes are moderate and include: additional trips on some routes, the through-routing of four bus lines for greater customer convenience, and a restructured Route 80 (Armistice Blvd.). In addition many routes will have rescheduled trip times.

There will be an additional 14 trips a day both on Route 11 (Broad St.) and Route 99 (Providence/Pawtucket). Both lines will also run more frequently.

Route 80 will begin serving Memorial Hospital and be through- routed with Route 73 (renamed Fairlawn/CCRI), providing a single continuous trip between Pawtucket and Lincoln.

Routes 51 (Charles St.) and 79 (Columbus Ave.) will also be through-routed and Route 51 will start running all day.

Route 60 (Newport/Providence) will offer an additional trip serving the Warren Park n’ Ride, an additional inbound trip on Saturdays, and an inbound express that stops only at the Gateway Center and Roger Williams University.
