1. Route Changes. The Committee was presented a proposed
time schedule and route change on all five of the Bangor
routes. The Committee accepted the changes with minor
deviations and recommended that the buses meet at the
downtown State Street shelter ten minutes before the hour
through noontime and leave to shelter ten minutes after
the hour after noontime. The petition will now be for-
warded to the Public Utilities Commission for approval.
The Committee also agreed they will experiment with a
late bus running out of downtown at ten after five and
twenty minutes to six to help alleviate those problems
with people getting out of work after five o'clock.
2. Name and Color Scheme. The Committee voted to name the
transit system "The Bus" and t0 have a distinctive orange
and red stripe around the bus.
The meeting adjourned at 1:40 p.m.
