Hall in the Tallahassee Room on Thursday, Oct. 20, and Tuesday, Oct. 25, from
11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.
Proposed changes include:
a.. Azalea Route - adjust timing of route and reroute middle portion
of route to veer onto Miccosukee Rd. and Magnolia Dr. before resuming route on
Mahan Dr. (This reroute would provide new service along the southern portion
of Miccosukee Rd.)
b.. Big Bend Route - adjust timing and reroute southern portion to
turn left on Monroe St. from Paul Russell Rd., right on Ross Rd., left on
Shelfer Rd., right on Capital Circle SW, right on Crawfordville Rd., right back
onto Ross Rd., left onto Shelfer Rd., then right onto Crawfordville Rd., right
on Orange Ave., left on Monroe St. then continue with route. (See Moss route.)
c.. Canopy Route - adjust timing and delete western portion of route
covering Pensacola St., Blountstown Highway and W. Tennessee St. (This section

veer into the Tallahassee Mall property on the northbound trip only; also,
reroute northern portion of route to travel along Grady Rd. to Thomas Rd., onto
Bermuda Rd., onto Meridian Rd. then right on Henderson Rd. (This reroute will
provide additional service to the Macon Community.)

and reroute western portion of route to continue on Eisenhower St. to Roberts

the route to turn left on Tharpe St. from Colorado St., right on High Rd., left
