We Need Your Input on our Proposed GoZone Service

Last month, we launched our public involvement process requesting your feedback on GoZone, our proposed majority on-demand service. Public input during this time is critical as we strive to improve mobility and livability in the communities we serve.

Head to DCTAfeedback.net to view our GoZone service plan in full and provide your input and suggestions on our interactive service map and ideas wall. We’re accepting feedback through June 25. Want to provide input in-person? Don’t worry, we have plenty of face-to-face opportunities on our events page.

With the proposed GoZone service, pick-up and drop-off points will multiply compared to existing fixed route service. So not only do the proposed GoZones cover more territory, but they also provide more virtual stops which is a major convenience factor for users. Check out the “How it Works” link at DCTAfeedback.net to see each of the proposed zones in detail and take our quick “General Service Plan” survey.

Mask Up When You #RideDCTA

Remember to mask up when you hop onboard a DCTA vehicle to follow the Federal Mask Mandate! Your mask helps the passenger next to you and vice versa. We’re doing everything we can to ensure our passengers and employees can ride safe and stay safe. As supply is available, we will offer a complimentary mask to those who do not have one. To learn more about how we are protecting riders during COVID-19, visit RideDCTA.net/health.
