After a lengthly history of declining ridership, the Cincinnati, Newport and Covington Transportation Company (the Green Line) gave notice that transit service in Northern Kentucky would be permanently withdrawn on Nov. 4, 1972. In anticipation of the Green Line closure, The Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky (TANK) was created to assume responsibility for providing publicly owned mass transit in the area, subject to voter approval. The study presents an updated five-year transit development program specifically for TANK. The impact that loss of transit service in Northern Kentucky would have is also evaluated. Among the TANK improvements were that: all Green Line routes would continue to be operated, many with more frequent service; service to Cincinnati CBD would be improved by a downtown shuttle bus; and demand-actuated routing (dial-a-bus) would provide better service levels in several areas.
