Every COTA Bus Route Review
Total routes reviewed: 20/39
Over time, this page will be filled in with a semi-detailed review for each COTA bus route. As I complete each review, I will link the review to each route listed below and include the final rating. these will include all standard, frequent, rush-hour routes, and some other miscellaneous routes. The rubric for the reviews is linked here.

note:
despite what the agency says, the two SmartRide shuttles in New Albany function more like a microtransit network than fixed-route lines. for this reason, i have removed them from the list of lines to be reviewed.
