AWARD * USA - Nonprofit Group's City bus system one of the best
The North Carolina Public Transportation Association Inc. presented its 2007 Safety Award to Greenville Area Transit during its annual meeting this month
Greenville,NC,USA -The Greenville Daily Reflector -June 29, 2008: -- The Greenville bus system received a safety award from a state association that promotes public transportation... GREAT received the award because it had no at-fault accidents or incidents during 2007, said Nancy Harrington, transit manager... The GREAT system made about 280,000 passenger trips this fiscal year, traveling about 215,000 miles, Harrington said... It's estimated the system grew 9.2 percent from July 1, 2007, to date, Harrington said. While high gas prices are partially driving the increase, it's mainly due to new riders who are moving from areas that have a bus system, she said... The North Carolina Public Transportation Association Inc. is a private, nonprofit organization that promotes public transportation throughout the state... Its 200 members represent groups ranging from large urban systems to the smallest of rural systems; bus and van manufacturers; educational entities; private companies; local and state elected officials, and individuals interested in public transportation...
