Review the Q42 route summary
The proposed Q42 would maintain its existing routing. Only stop changes are proposed.
To match stop spacing on other Local routes, Q42 stops would be spaced slightly further apart than existing to speed up buses and improve reliability.
Weekday frequencies would be slightly adjusted in select time periods. Service would continue to operate during the same hours.
