The Kansas Department of Transportation has launched a comprehensive bus study survey aimed at improving public transportation services statewide. The survey is open to everyone, particularly users of public transit and intercity bus services. It takes about six minutes to complete and can be accessed online. The survey will remain open until November 30.

This study will evaluate the current long-distance bus services offered by public transit agencies and private intercity carriers, including Greyhound, Jefferson Lines, and Village Travel. Feedback from the survey will play a crucial role in shaping the future of bus services in Kansas and addressing the transportation needs of residents and communities across the state.

“Public transportation plays a crucial role in connecting communities and allowing access to essential services across the state,” said KDOT Public Transportation Manager Rene Hart. “The feedback we receive will guide our efforts to create a more efficient, accessible and responsive transit system that meets the diverse needs of our communities.”

The survey can be found here, and additional information can be found on KDOT’s website.
