Wake Forest Public Transit Plan - October 2023

WAKE FOREST PUBLIC TRANSIT PLAN

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS There are additional considerations of the Transit Plan that go beyond the transit expansion alternatives. These additional considerations include: • An expansion of the WRX to an all-day bidirectional route that would provide additional options for people to travel between Downtown Raleigh and Wake Forest, especially for midday trips for non-work purposes, e.g., going to medical appointments, or shopping. • Expanding the WFL to have a 30-minute frequency to decrease the time that people must wait to get a bus. • Extending the Planned Route 2L to Northeast Wake Forest which is being considered as a new transit service to begin in FY 2029. • Rolesville Microtransit is planned to open in FY 2024 per the FY2025-2030 Wake Bus Plan and could potentially serve specific pick up/drop off nodes within Wake Forest. When it opens, the service will replace the Route 401X. This service could satisfy the transit expansion purpose of connecting Wake Forest to Rolesville

Although these were not considered as part of the transit expansion alternatives, they are potentially viable options that the Town may consider in the future to meet the needs of riders.
