(SET) Soaring Eagle Transit is working on NEW local schedules for winter and summer and would love to get local opinion on places and times to add to our routes. We are already going to add for winter the hardware store, Cross roads, the Hub, Library, Sparks, Glennallen and Copper center Post offices, and a middle stop back to Gulkana hall so you do not have to ride for 4 hours just to do one thing in town. We also are going to make sure the stops for CRNA are during elder lunches. We would love to get input form locals since this is a locals route.
