Lake Havasu City Transit is changing the services it provides to best serve the public in Lake Havasu City. The Direct and Flex (ADA users) services are widely popular, with almost 20,000 riders in the last twelve months. This service allows the user to request a ride through an app or by phone call. The service costs the user $3 or $5, depending on the length of the ride. Based on ridership, the fixed-route system has not met the expectations of Lake Havasu City Transit and a change is needed. The Bridge first served Lake Havasu City residents on February 28, 2022, and will have its final ride this Friday, October 20, 2023. The Transit Division ran three different pilot routes, to identify a route that would be beneficial and sustainable for the residents of Lake Havasu City. The data collected was evaluated and it is determined that the system did not produce the expected ridership.
