42 Implementation Approach Overview Phase 1 Summer / Fall 2018 Phase 2 Early/Mid 2019 Phase 3 Late 2019 / Early 2020 Review, optimize and/or adjust service as needed 42

43 Phase 1 Summer/Fall 2018 Changes to Routes 205 (CTA), 208 (Pace), and 213 (Pace) Pulse Milwaukee service launch; includes restructure of Pace Route 270 service 43
