LANSING, Mich. — CATA is preparing for their fall season.
The ride-service said it is implementing changes on several routes in order to provide greater efficiencies and additional service.

Here are route-specific changes:
Route 1 Downtown Lansing/ Meridian Mal:
Late-night service across the corridor will maintain the same frequency year-round to provide consistent service every Thursday, Friday and Saturday until 3:35 a.m. Weekday Capitol Loop trips will operate the same year-round in the morning and adjust slightly in the evening during MSU breaks and holidays.
Route 3 Willow/Lansing Mall:
Added trips on the weekend will noticeably increase the frequency of service. Three new trips on Saturday morning will provide 30-minute service all day. Sunday trips will double as the frequency of service increases from 60 minutes to 30 minutes all day.
