Major Service Change Policy The Major Service Change policy governs when The T is required to conduct equity analysis of effects of potential service changes and hold a public hearing • A Major Service Change is defined as: • The establishment of a new transit route • An increase or decrease of 25% or more of the number of transit route miles of a transit route for any given day.
Federal Title VI Analyis • If the minority populations will experience 20% more of the cumulative impact due to service change. • Or if low-income populations will experience 20% more of the cumulative burden, relative to the non-minority or non-low-income populations. • Analysis • No disparate impacts to minority population • No disproportionate burden to low-income populations
