The Stark Area Regional Transit Authority (SARTA) is inviting the public to attend a series of meetings in January 2026 to learn more about upcoming transit service changes scheduled to begin Feb. 9.

SARTA officials say the meetings are designed to provide details on the proposed updates and give riders and community members an opportunity to ask questions and share feedback before the changes take effect.

Planned service updates include the termination of Route 4 Cleveland Express, increased frequency on Route 105 Canton/Bolivar, expanded Proline Plus service hours, and additional Community Coach service in Canal Fulton. SARTA will also introduce a Door-to-Door pilot program in Canal Fulton.
