This football season, CATS and Tepper Sports & Entertainment are launching the Game Day Express for all Carolina Panthers Home games. The Game Day Express will offer increased services on 61x (Arboretum), 64x (Independence Boulevard) and 177 (North Meck Connector). Customers using the service may park their cars at select Park & Rides along the routes with the purchase of an Express Bus ticket.
The MPTA and CATS are seeking applicants for two new transit rider-focused advisory committees—the Mobility Access Committee (MAC) and the Transit Riders Advisory Committee (TRAC). These committees will elevate rider experience into decisions that affect accessibility, service quality, customer experience and the future of our transit system.
