Chatham Area Transit is planning to increase the operating hours for most fixed-route buses and CAT Mobility paratransit services on June 15, while retaining safety measures put in place to help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

CAT Mobility paratransit service hours will be identical to the extended fixed-route schedule.

Since capacity will remain limited, customers should continue to only use CAT services for essential trips such as work, medical appointments and grocery shopping.

Customers also are strongly encouraged to use cloth face coverings or masks while riding the bus or using CAT Mobility.

Customer service also will resume regular operating hours on June 15.
