Deadline extended

YOUNGSTOWN

The Western Reserve Transit Authority is extending the deadline to complete its survey to June 29, because a link to the survey was not available at WRTAonline.com this week.

The link should be available on the WRTA website now and its Facebook page, www.facebook.com/WRTA.OH, and participants also can get to the survey directly at http://bit.ly/MgfSYo.

The survey responses will be anonymous and are being managed by a third party, but if respondents give their email address at the end of the survey, they will be entered to win a $50 gift card.

The survey is part of a comprehensive study of needs, routes and services and targeting riders as well as nonriders to see what their priorities are and how WRTA can better serve the area, according to a news release.
