Project Description:
Building on Phase Two, which secured 35- and 40-passenger buses, Phase Three advances mid-size paratransit expansion and the addition of specialized service vehicles. As part of this asset acquisition, the precinct will procure four additional 35-passenger buses equipped with ADA-compliant lifts. This operational goal will eliminate the service gap for 2026 field trips and special events by replacing aging units that have exceeded their 10-year or 150,000-mile service life. The investment will support more than 27,000 annual riders based on 2024 data and address approximately 194,000 miles driven each year across Precinct 2.
