The Port Arthur Transit Department has stops at the Port Arthur Public Library for bus transfers and as a destination route for library patrons. Ivan Mitchell, Port Arthur Transit Manager, states that the newly paved lane at the library is strictly for transit vehicles. According to Mr. Mitchell, "This will allow us to safely avoid most vehicular traffic coming from the Library and Civic Center. If the weather holds up the plan is to start using the lane on Monday, October 4^th.  As of today it is about 90% complete."  

We look forward to the improvements made by Ivan and plan to see many more promising changes to our public transportation service.
