In November 2016, Charlevoix County Transit reported that its advertised 800 number for reservations was unavailable. Riders were directed to call 231-582-6900, and the notice introduced an online reservation portal with a public demonstration planned for November 20.

Evidence limits

The transit relay establishes the outage notice and workaround. It does not preserve a repair date or establish how many riders were affected.

The notice said the 800 number had been unavailable for an undetermined period, supplied 231-582-6900 as an alternative, and described an online reservation portal. A later post announced a demonstration of the online features. This documents the service notice and workaround, not the repair date or system’s continuing availability.
