I Honorable Mayor ,and City Council . Eugene, Oregon Gentlemen: With our letter of May 22nd, 1940 we asked authority to make certain revisions in service on the Fairmount Loop line and to extend service into the district north of the S. P: Co. tracks, all of which was to be in the nature- of an experiment. to determine if there was justification for such revisions as demanded by the public. We have given it a fair trial on the Fairmount Loop sincex June 16th and now find that the revision was a mistake. While the change of route did offer a convenience to some few people it was a decided inconvenience to a far greater number of regular riders residing in fraternity and sorority house in the vicinity. They availed themselves of this service because of the frequency due to the fact that they could use the University Loop bus going to town and the Fair- mount loop bus returning from town. We therefore wish to restore the service as it was and require the following authority: Discontinue operation: I On Alder between 19th and 22nd On 22nd between Alder and University Establish service: On University between 19th and 22nd As for the extension north of the S. P. Co.. tracks, we wish to make further revision and extension and require authority as follo~m: Discontinue operation: I On Madison between 1st and 2nd On 2nd between Madison and Monroe On Monroe between 1st and 2nd Establish service: On 1st between Monroe and Van Buren On Van Buren between 1st and 2nd On 2nd between Van Buren and Garfield On Garfield between 2nd and Roosevelt Blvd I On Roosevelt Blvd between Garfield and 4 corners and.Westlane. ,.'
