Trash, recycling and yard waste will maintain regular service because crews routinely have Wednesdays off. The Fayetteville Area System of Transit (FAST) will operate on normal hours Wednesday, Nov. 11. continued FAST FAST is providing uninterrupted service on routes 15 and 16. The bus system has seen an increase in ridership on the routes, substantiating the schedule change. Additional changes include moving the transfer point for Route 16 and the outbound Route 15 from Bunce Road to Cliffdale Road. The inbound route 15 transfer point will remain on Bunce Road. The changes are a part of the Transit Development Plan (TDP), which was completed in August. The TDP was produced by a transit consulting firm, KFH Group, to aid FAST in improving and expanding services. Future adjustments that were outlined in the TDP will be made when possible. FAST recently completed the second phase of its four-part vehicle replacement program and rebranded its Paratransit service as FASTTRAC! (Transit Riders' ADA Choice). The third phase of the vehicle replacement program will include five diesel-electric hybrid buses to be put into operation in late 2010 or early 2011. FAST improvements have been a focus of Mayor Tony Chavonne and the City Council. "Council's commitment to improving FAST remains a high priority," Chavonne said. "These positive changes to the transit system are what citizens requested. And by taking into account the recent increase in ridership, residents like the adjustments that have been made, so that's great progress."
