I must have missed the 409/419 having evening service, I would swear it was still ending before 8pm.

I checked again and maybe confused with the weekend service. Indeed routes end around 8pm. In fact, I compared schedules with the 409 (419 links is broken). and they look virtually identical...I must have missed the 409/419 having evening service, I would swear it was still ending before 8pm.

Wow, a 1.75% levy would translate to quite a big boost in the budget for DRT.

For comparison, last years recommendation was 2.0 percent, but we only ended up with 1.6...so if this year's recommendation is 1.75, it's possible we are under that again - Especially given some council members (citizens) talk on reigning in budget increases.Wow, a 1.75% levy would translate to quite a big boost in the budget for DRT.
The long term plan (though 2032) called for 2 percent and higher annual increases starting this past year.
Source (slide 3)..and we are below that so far...

While I absolutely support the goal of 2% + and recognize that DRT has a considerable distance to cover to reach anything like 'ideal' transit, it must be said, their rate of improvement, from utterly abysmal 10 years ago......to where they are now is substantial. If the could even sustain 1.6% per year but it took til 2034, I think DRT could involve into a very high quality service.
