If you are planning on using CobbLinc buses around the holidays, you should be aware of some changes.

No local routes are being altered, but express routes 100 and 101 will have different schedules around Thanksgiving.

Remember, CobbLinc isn’t operating on Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s Eve nor New Year’s Day.

It wouldn't matter for New Year's Eve anyway because it's a Sunday, and CobbLinc doesn't run on Sundays — but such service has been discussed by county commissioners. Cobb County Transit, or CCT, officially became "CobbLinc" in 2016.

Route 100 usually takes folks from the Busbee Park and Ride Lot in Kennesaw near Town Center to downtown Atlanta via I-75.

Below is the route 100 schedule for the Friday after Thanksgiving.

Route 101 carts riders from the Marietta Transfer Center to Atlanta also along I-75.

CobbLinc added a mid-day trip to route 101 for folks who are leaving work early on the day before Thanksgiving.

Here are details on that extra trip:

• MARTA Civic Center - 12:45 p.m.

• MARTA Five Points - 12:55 p.m.

• MARTA Civic Center - 1:05 p.m.

• Marietta Park and Ride - 1:45 p.m.
