Transdev operates under the principles that everyone has the right to equal access on public transit—not just today, not just during Black History Month, but always. Looking forward to hearing how our operations recognized Transit Equity Day and Rosa Parks' birthday across the country.

In honor of Black History Month in February, we will be recognizing and celebrating key contributions made to the transportation industry by African Americans both internally and externally throughout the month. At Transdev, we operate under the principles that everyone has the right to equal access on public transit—not just today, not just during Black History Month, but always.

Thank you to our operations who organized Stuff-a-Bus events over the holidays. In light of the pandemic and how so many people have been affected, community outreach and showing we care about the communities in which we operate has been more important than ever

MLK Day is observed each year on the third Monday in January, in honor of civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s life and legacy. It is the only federal holiday designated as a national day of service to encourage all Americans to volunteer to improve their communities or reflect on civil rights and racial equity issues. It’s sometimes referred to as “a day on, not a day off.”

January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month. An unfortunate reality is that public transit is often used to recruit and transport victims. On Monday, January 11, many in our industry are wearing blue in an effort to raise awareness around this crime.

As we embark on 2021, we are so proud to recognize that 2020 marked the 50-year anniversary of our partnership with the City of Phoenix to provide safe, reliable and efficient transportation to the City’s residents. How exciting for us to be part of one of the country’s longest-running partnerships of the public and private sectors focused on bus operations, service quality and maintenance.

We are proud to serve communities with disabilities by providing safe, reliable and comfortable transportation on every passenger trip. Check out the video we put together in honor of International Day of Persons with Disabilities (Dec. 3). 

There’s no better combination over the holidays than gingerbread, kids, gifts and giving. Our Phoenix operation just kicked off their Gingerbread Kids Gift Drive. To set the stage, some of our Phoenix employees’ kids put together some great gingerbread houses.…

In honor of Veterans Day, we proudly recognize and celebrate our many employees who are veterans. We thank them, and all veterans, for their service and sacrifice. Check out our included video.
