VIA is now set to begin operating an important new service by 2027.
Uber Transit Ticketing will enable riders across San Antonio and Bexar County to buy tickets and ride within the Uber app.
The addition of the 40-foot GILLIG buses expands VIA’s sustainable vehicle profile which includes nearly 500 buses fueled by compressed natural gas.
The 11-acre property was designed to house VIAtrans operations and fleet maintenance.
The total consolidated budget in FY23 is $406.6 million ($274 million operating, $132.6M capital) with no fare increases.
It is the third VIA Link zone to open since the on-demand transit option was introduced in 2019 with a Northeast Zone and grew in 2021 with a Northwest Zone.
The agency has recorded growth for several months in the first half of 2022 and tracked its largest year-over-year increase in April, with a 21% bump over 2021 numbers.
Installation of 562 Active Air Purification Systems was completed in March.
VIA said the adjustments are meant to be temporary and will primarily focus on fixed-route bus frequency.
