Beginning on Wednesday, December 1, Dubuque’s KeyLine Transit will begin service on a newly created “Medical Loop” route.
The loop will provide hourly service between the Finley Hospital, Mercy Medical Center, Medical Associates Clinic (East Campus only), as well as Clarke University, Loras College, the University of Dubuque, and the Hy-Vee Food Store on South Locust Street. Passengers can access the service from the other KeyLine bus lines at the 6th and Iowa transfer point at 45 minutes past the hour between the hours of 7:45 a.m. and 4:45 p.m.
Keyline’s standard fare structure applies to the Medical Loop: $1.00 per ride for the general public; $0.50 for senior citizens, students 17 and under, and persons with disabilities; and no charge for transfers.
The Medical Loop is just one of several service improvements recommended in the KeyLine Operations Analysis conducted by LSC Consulting earlier this year and is funded in part by a grant secured by East Central Intergovernmental Association through the Iowa Clean Air Attainment Program.
If you have any questions about the medical loop route, please contact Keyline Transit at 563-589-4196 or email transit@cityofdubuque.org.
