Dear Members of the San Luis Obispo City Council,
My name is Katie Smith, I am a current student at Cal Poly in Junior standing and I attended the
City Council meeting on 2/25/25.
The details of the public transit expansion project look great! There are so many important issues
being addressed and it’s great to see the City being so responsive to the needs of the community.
There is one issue that I would like to bring to your attention in the off chance that something can
be done about it. When a bus breaks down or there is an interruption with a bus that would cause
a certain route to not receive service when it normally does, push notifications alerting
commuters of the disruption in service are extremely inconsistent.
If there is a way to improve the consistency of real-time route outage alerts on the existing app, it
would be an easy way to improve the reliable usability and quality of life for the riders that rely
on the scheduled buses.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration,
Katie Smith
