| Abstract | This study is prompted by the proposed abandonment of regular-route intercity bus service across northern Nebraska. The current route, which is operated by Black Hills Stage Lines, provides service from Omaha through Norfolk and Chadron to Rapid City, South Dakota, on a schedule providing a single round-trip per day, five days per week. The request by the carrier to discontinue service between Norfolk, Nebraska and Rapid City, South Dakota, led the Nebraska Department of Roads to request funding from the Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA) of the U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S.DOT) to continue service on the route while a study was completed to address the future of the route. This study describes the existing service, discusses the need for and use of the service, and outlines several alternatives to meet these needs along with funding options. |
