Valley Metro announced a suite of bus service improvements this month, with even more potentially on the way later this year.

"Starting April 24, Valley Metro will roll out major bus service improvements allowing greater opportunity for riders to connect to employment, education and entertainment," according to a press release published on the Queen Creek Independent's website.
The bus improvements follow prescriptions laid out by the Phoenix Transportation 2050 plan. Local bus routes and Dial-a-Ride will expand service hours throughout the week. The press release also lists all the additional service improvements, like extended routes and new routes.
Valley Metro also uses the press release to announce additional proposed changes that could take effect in October of this year.
