Louisville councilwoman Donna Purvis urges residents to attend transit planning meeting Aug. 25

Louisville City Councilwoman Donna Purvis is encouraging residents in her district to attend a transit planning meeting scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 25, from 5 to 7 p.m., according to a report from WAVE.

The meeting will take place at Good Shepherd Catholic Church, 3525 Rudd Ave., where attendees are expected to share input on transit planning priorities for the area served by the council district, Purvis said in connection with the event.

Purvis’s request emphasizes the importance of local participation, with residents invited to hear about the planning effort and provide feedback as officials work through how proposed transit changes could affect daily routes, access, and service levels.

The event comes as Louisville-area transit planning remains an ongoing public process that can shape how bus service and related transportation decisions are developed and communicated to communities across the city.

Purvis’s outreach also highlights the role of neighborhood organizations and faith-based community spaces in convening residents for discussions that affect commuting, appointments, and access to schools and services.

Organizers said the meeting will run for a two-hour window, and residents who plan to attend are expected to use the forum to raise questions and concerns directly with those involved in transit planning. Additional details about the agenda were not included in the WAVE report.
