Today, at Transdev, we are celebrating Transit Equity Day and Rosa Parks’ birthday. Rosa Parks’ influence on the transportation industry continues to have an impact today. 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.

Black History Month kicks off today and Transit Equity Day and Rosa Parks’ birthday is Friday! Throughout the month, we will be highlighting various facts around Black History month and offer suggestions on how to celebrate.

The people at Dupage Pads were so appreciative of the bags our Lombard corporate employees put together to help some of the homeless population in Chicagoland.

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. King’s birthday is January 15. MLK Day 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.

Whether it was through our Stuff-a-Bus program, our 5 Days of Cheer, local team holiday lunches or transporting kids to meet Santa – the essence of the holidays was proudly on display and felt at our locations. Enjoy the included picture recap. Here’s to a great 2023!

Wishing you and your families a healthy, safe and happy new year and all the best for 2023!

Our Transdev team in DeKalb partnered with the City of DeKalb to make their annual holiday event called "Lights on Lincoln" another great success in 2022.

Our Stuff-a-Bus program translated so well to our streetcar business recently in Cincinnati. Our team there collected food to distribute to those in need and some of our “streetcar elves” were out in full force on the streetcar giving out treats and holiday goodies.

In its 35th year, CityLink’s Stuff-a-Bus efforts collect a record 24,942 pounds (12.47 tons) to help eliminate hunger in Peoria, Illinois. Thanks to our local team for partnering with our client to continue this longstanding tradition.

Wishing you and your families a safe, healthy and happy holiday season.
