Schedule and route changes were made in January 2015.[2] HolidaysTransit Master PlanIn 2009, the City of Asheville commissioned a plan for an overhaul of the transit system. The consulting team, HDR Engineering of the Carolinas (HDR), conducted rider surveys and held several public input events. The final report recommended many changes, including adding Sunday service on the most popular routes, removing Saturday service on some routes, and ending the practice of renumbering evening routes.[3] Route changes began to occur in conjunction with the annual "Strive Not to Drive" week, in late May 2012.[9] The plan also recommended purchasing a few new buses at a time so as to stagger the retirement dates of older buses.[3] In early 2011, several new hybrid buses entered the fleet as the first implementation of this recommendation.[10] FundingFor FY 2012-2013, ART's operating budget was $5 million.[11] The entire Transit Fund revenue is derived from three primary sources: federal and state grant funding ($2.8 million), local tax support ($1.2 million), and passenger charges.[12] Paratransit ServiceAsheville contracts with Mountain Mobility to provide paratransit service. This service is provided within {{convert|3/4|mi}} of fixed ART routes and within the City of Asheville. This service is mandated by the Americans with Disabilities Act.[13] Strive Not To DriveStrive Not To Drive is a week-long long program in the City of Asheville that promotes multimodal transit and the environment. In 2014, it included such events as a Ride of Silence, a Leadership Ride and a reduced fare promotion.
