Summit Service Interruption Notice Effective 2-5-09
Summit Update - When we were forced to suspend service to Summit back in fall 2008 due to road and building construction, we had hoped to resume service later in 2008. Unfortunately, while it appears that they have finished the construction for cars to use the lot, it does not have appropriate access for buses at this time. It is our understanding that they also have more construction left to do in that immediate area so we can not offer any timeframe on when or if we can resume service. Once construction has been completed in that area, we will reexamine the parking situation to see if our buses will be able to resume service to Summit. Once a decision is made, we will post a message in our Message Center at the Badger Bus ticketing website. Thank you.
