Plans to get Lakeville on bus line are gaining speed

Local officials are looking at a plan that could include downtown express buses and local routes. And the Legislature could get involved. With plans afoot that could bring two bus stations to Lakeville by 2009, local officials are taking a close look at transit improvements that could mean tax increases. In Lakeville, which does not have bus service, city officials are reviewing a detailed study that outlines what it would take -- and how much it would cost -- to start offering public transit that could include express commuter buses, local routes during the day and dial-a-ride service. The study, ordered as part of a scheduled update to the city's long-range plans, doesn't mean buses are just around the corner, and the City Council could choose to do nothing.
