Under the terms of the contract, RATP Dev USA will manage and operate Greensboro Transit Agency’s fixed route HEAT and Access GSO paratransit operating services.
Via Metro STL, which is powered by Via, extends the reach of the region’s Metro Transit system by providing riders with affordable and convenient first-mile/last-mile connections between destinations in St. Louis County.
The agreement between ATU and RTA covers 518 represented employees, including bus, streetcar, and paratransit operators, dispatchers, reservationists, clerks, transit tellers, transit information operators, router editors, and training instructors.
The Automatic Securement Stations are currently available in 79 buses, or 40% of the active fleet.
The opening comes after a months-long process of getting input from transit riders, area residents, elected officials, and stakeholders through a series of virtual Design Workshops, surveys, and community events — and completing construction.
