On May 20, 2024, the Sioux Falls Public Transit Advisory Board recommended approval of route modifications and service expansion throughout the Sioux Area Metro transit system. The changes include adding citywide SAM On Demand on weekdays, replacing the 12 weekday bus routes with 9 new direct and frequent routes, and expanding weekday and Saturday service hours.

These changes will allow every resident within the city of Sioux Falls to access the public transit system and are expected to be implemented this fall. There will be no changes to the fare structure.

Notice is given that the public may request a public hearing on the proposed changes. Contact bren.schweitzer@siouxfalls.gov no later than May 31, 2024, at 5 p.m. to request a hearing.
