The Clemson Area Transit system (CATbus) sought a new and fresh look at its routes, fleet deployment, service delivery options, and future capital needs with the goal of increasing ridership and operational efficiency. The CATbus service area includes Clemson University, the City of Clemson, the City of Seneca, and the Towns of Central and Pendleton (see Figure ES.1). CATbus provides fare-free fixed-route bus service in and around Clemson, SC for up to 20 hours a day, seven days a week, an unusually long service span for a small bus system.
