Congratulations to our Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA (Div-98) team for being recognized by the Metro’s Office of Civil Rights & Inclusion (OCR) at their Virtual Annual Accessibility Awards held earlier this month. LACMTA won three awards based on their Mystery Rider Program and CCATS records.

IntelliRide is proud to announce its new partnership with AlohaCare (Hawaii) to manage and oversee their non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) benefit for their Medicaid and Medicare members, encompassing the reservation and scheduling of passenger trips throughout the entire state of Hawaii.

Mass Transit recently featured an article by Transdev in their ‘Best Practices’ section, which discusses some ideas for building employee engagement, the ongoing commitment to continuous improvement and the importance of strengthening our connection with our employees.

We are proud to announce the continuation of our partnership with Texoma Area Paratransit Services (TAPS) in Sherman, Texas for another five years.

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our long-time Foothill Transit General Manager, Bill Jackson. Bill passed away this past weekend, with his wife Verdeen at his side. Bill will be greatly missed by so many of us at Transdev. We feel grateful and fortunate to have known him.

January was off to a great start for the IntelliRide team. On January 4th, they began providing NEMT (non-emergency medical transportation) services for Anthem’s Healthy Blue contract in Nebraska and the contract kick off was a huge success.

Last week we entered into a new partnership with the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) to manage their ADA paratransit eligibility certification process.

Our JTRAN General Manager, Evangeline Jackson-Martin, was on hand earlier this week to support our Jackson, Mississippi client as the City announced the purchase and rollout of four new hybrid-electric buses.

On January 2, 2021, we launched our new start-up in Dekalb, IL with the City of Dekalb’s Urban Paratransit Service. This is a great new contract for us and complements our existing fixed-route service contract with the City of Dekalb with whom we have operated Northern Illinois University’s Huskie Line service for close to 50 years.

Today, our U.S. CEO, Laura Hendricks, sent a letter to the Governors of every state where we conduct business asking them to prioritize public transportation employees as high on the COVID-19 vaccine distribution list of essential workers as possible.
