Service Change

ALL BUS ROUTES

Effective Monday, August 29, 2022, reduced service schedules went into effect on some KAT bus routes. Click here for more information.

The KAT Reimagined project is a system-wide reimagining of the KAT bus network: where the buses go, and how often. This public-led process which began in 2021 has resulted in a new Recommended Network that has been adopted by the Knoxville Transportation Authority. Now the KAT staff is working on the detailed design of these routes and schedules, and how it will all fit together. The plans will be presented to the Knoxville Transportation Authority in March of 2024.

You can find out all of the background and public process, view the map, and learn about the frequency improvements and other changes, by visiting katreimagined.com. But the infographic below shows some of the highlighted improvements:

The Regional Coordination Study.

In addition to KAT, Knox County CAC provides transportation services within the City and County, and East Tennessee Human Resources Agency (ETHRA) also provides service beyond Knox County and within. How can these three organizations work together more effectively? See the results of the coordination study here.

Regional Transit Study.

The metropolitan area of Knoxville is growing rapidly, and many people commute between counties for work, shopping and more. How can we start thinking of transit as a more regional solution to a variety of challenges, from carbon emissions to congestion? Read the high-level overview report here.
