New TriMet Contract Off to a Great Start

Excited to announce that our new partnership with TriMet in Portland, Oregon to operate its LIFT Paratransit services had a great start up last week.

TriMet is the public agency that operates mass transit and paratransit for most of the Portland metropolitan area. LIFT is TriMet’s paratransit shared ride service.

As part of this contract, we are operating TriMet’s fleet of 226 paratransit vehicles with more than 200 employees.

“We look forward to bringing the ‘Transdev difference’ to this new partnership,” said Ron Bushman, our Northwest Region RVP. “We look forward to sharing how safety is our top priority and demonstrating this through our programs, like DriveCam and Mobileye. Our new drivers will be given the tools to help them, and in turn our passengers and communities, have an even safer experience on the roads.”

Enjoy the pictures below from the bright and early start from last Friday. Congratulations to the BD and Tri-Met teams for the great start to our new contract.
