Residents to Discuss Bus, Shuttle Routes

San Fernando Valley residents will be asked for suggestions Monday on the best way to redesign bus and shuttle routes.

The 7 p.m. meeting at Valley College’s cafeteria conference room, 5800 Fulton Ave., Van Nuys, is the fourth of eight public meetings scheduled to collect public comments on the San Fernando Valley Transit Service Restructuring Study.

The study is funded by the Los Angeles Department of Transportation, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, the county Department of Public Works and Commuter Transportation Services Inc., a nonprofit company that promotes car-pooling and mass transit.

The study is designed to reorganize bus routes to better serve riders. A majority of the present routes haven’t changed since the mid-1970s. The restructuring is expected to be completed by the end of next year.

Other hearing dates and locations:

* 7 p.m. Tuesday at the La Canada Flintridge Public Library, 4545 Oakwood Ave.

* 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Pacoima Recreation Center, 10943 Herrick Ave.

* 7 p.m. July 1 at Weddington Park, 10844 Acama St., Studio City.
