CATA Proposes Service Changes in Response to Driver Shortage

The Centre Area Transportation Authority is proposing service reductions it says are needed because of a driver shortage affecting transit systems nationwide. Changes to five bus routes would go into effect on Jan. 11, pending a public hearing Nov. 9 and approval by the CATA Board on Nov. 16, according to a new release on Monday. “Service adjustments are always frustrating, but the proposed modifications are the most responsible step we can take to ensure that CATA continues to provide safe, reliable and sustainable service,” CATA CEO Todd Horsley said in a statement. “Public transit providers across North America are experiencing significant workforce shortages. CATA’s bus drivers enable the high level of first-class transit service that the community expects. Our drivers are the best in the business, but we need more of them.” Service adjustments are proposed for the following routes. • AC (Atherton Connector) - Reduce service frequency Monday through Thursday to every 45 minutes from the current 30-32 minutes; - End service from Monday through Saturday at 8 p.m. instead of the current 10 p.m. • CC (College Connector) - Reduce Sunday service to every 60 minutes from the current 30 minutes. - End Sunday service at 10

Shiloh Road to See Millions in Traffic Improvements as Development Grows

With a hotel already under construction, hundreds of new residential units planned and other development in the works, the Shiloh Road corridor is preparing for major changes. And with that growth comes more traffic. As construction projects continue across Centre County, state and local officials gathered Friday for a press conference to highlight more than $3.6 million in state funding for road improvements along Shiloh Road in College and Benner townships. Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Secretary Mike Carroll joined local officials, legislators and developers to discuss the project, along with other transportation investments throughout the region. The improvements come as traffic along the corridor is expected to increase significantly with new residential and commercial development. According to estimates shared by College Township officials last year , average daily vehicle trips on Shiloh Road could increase from 13,250 to 44,074 once developments in the corridor are fully built out, a process that could take a decade or longer. "But that growth requires a transportation network that's safe and efficient," Carroll said. "And so improvements were necessary in this corridor."

Bill to rename I-81 Exit 119 after fallen PSP trooper now law

Harrisburg, Pa. — Legislation to designate the interchange of Interstate 81 and State Route 4007, known as Exit 119, as the PSP Trooper Michael E. Pahira Jr. Memorial Interchange has been signed into law, said Sen. Dave Argall (R-29) and Rep. Tim Twardzik (R-123) . Trooper Pahira passed away on July 1 after being struck by a tractor-trailer while conducting a commercial vehicle safety inspection along Interstate 81 in Cass Township. He joined the Pennsylvania State Police in 2007 and most recently served as a motor carrier enforcement inspector with Troop L, Frackville. He was the 106th state trooper to lose his life in the line of duty. The renamed exit is on the border of Cass and Butler townships in Schuylkill County. “Pennsylvania suffered a tragedy this summer with the loss of Trooper Pahira,” said Argall. “Trooper Pahira represented the very best of our commonwealth, dedicating nearly 20 years of his life to serving his community and the people of Pennsylvania.” “The renaming of I-81 Exit 119 in honor of Trooper Pahira ensures that his courage, sacrifice and service to the commonwealth will never be forgotten,” Twardzik said. “May his name serve as a lasting reminder of the dangers
