The contract includes four-year and three-year options that could bring the total contract term to 10 years.
The four-year contract begins on June 11, with two two-year options to extend with Keolis.
LIT and Keolis will leverage their industry networks to create opportunities for education, mentoring, and professional development among multicultural employees.
Keolis operates and maintains a range of transportation networks across 13 countries including North America with 68,000 employees.
The goal for Keolis' new entity is to support public transport authorities and passengers with digital products.
In the first two articles of this series, I discussed what can be done to make public transit Americans’ first choice for getting around. I also shared how transit agencies can be effective with the windfall from the CARES Act and the bipartisan infrastructure deal. A common thread between these two ideas is the assistance provided by private industry — particularly transit operators like Keolis.
In part two of our series, Keolis’ David Scorey highlights the impact of the largest-ever single investment in public transportation in the U.S.
Opportunities can feel few and far between these days, which is exactly why the U.S. must seize the one it was recently handed: a rare chance to give public transportation the makeover that current passengers have long demanded and that which there is a latent demand for by potential passengers.
With 30 years of experience in the public transport sector, David Scorey will continue to develop Keolis' activities in the U.S. and Canada.
Under this global agreement, Texelis will provide support to Keolis for the development of innovative mobility solutions, such as new bogie systems and transportation concepts.
