The Poudre Express, a new bus route operated by Greeley Evans Transit, is set to begin operation Thursday, January 2 and will service Windsor, Fort Collins, and Greeley.

The bus times and bus routes have been heavily researched by transit officials and are based on several years of data in hopes of providing a viable transportation option to commuters.

The bus will run Monday through Friday offering four-morning routes and three-afternoon routes traveling in each direction. Routes traveling east will start at the Colorado State University Transit Center and end at the Greeley Evans Regional Transportation Center. Routes traveling west will begin at the Greeley Evans Regional Transportation Center and end at the CSU Transit Center. The bus will make three stops in Windsor, one-stop in east, central and west Windsor.
