BLACKSBURG, Va. — Virginia Tech added its first solar-powered bus shelter, which was installed on a Blacksburg Transit route, according to The Southwest Times.

The 12-foot shelter, purchased from Tolar Manufacturing Company Inc., is equipped with a solar light bar. A solar array re-charges the battery each day replacing energy that was used during the previous evening and includes a reserve to provide regular illumination even during raining or cloudy weather.
