CityBus General Manager Martin Sennett said Route 5 (Happy Hollow) will provide limited service to the neighborhood near 500 N. and 75 E. in West Lafayette. The bus will serve the neighborhood on four trips in the morning and afternoon. Buses will stop there at 6:15AM, 6:45AM, 7:15AM, and 7:45AM, and at 4:45PM, 5:15PM, 5:45PM, and 6:15PM.

CityBus will extend the Happy Hollow 5 route to serve the Prophets Ridge subdivision in northern West Lafayette on Febraury 2, 2009

Other areas served by the route include Kalberer Rd., Cumberland Ave., Soldiers Home Rd., Happy Hollow Rd., N. River Rd., and the Purdue campus. The ride time between campus and Prophets Ridge is 27 minutes.

Sennett said the change includes discontinuing service along portions of the route that are served by other bus routes. “Making the route more efficient is what allows us to extend it further north,” Sennett said. Route 5 will no longer serve S. Grant St., Wood, Chauncey, Salisbury, or Barlow in West Lafayette. Service on Chippewa and Navajo will be provided only when requested by riders.

Another advantage is a faster return trip for residents along Soldiers Home Rd., said Sennett. “Currently many of the riders exit the bus at Chippewa and walk across the bridge over U.S. 52. These riders will find the new route more convenient.”
