Happy Work Anniversary to our incredible bus driver, Paul, who is celebrating two years with TRUE Transit! 🎉

We are so fortunate to have Paul on our team. His dedication and care for our passengers truly make a difference every day. Just this week, we received a note from a rider who shared, “Paul did a super job. We were caught in a rainstorm with extremely heavy downpours, and he drove very carefully. I felt safe knowing he had full control of the bus.”

Moments like this say it all. Paul goes above and beyond to ensure every ride is safe and comfortable.

Please join us in thanking Paul for his hard work and commitment to our community.

Yesterday, our team came together for an all-staff training focused on strengthening our customer service skills and enhancing the experience we provide to those we serve.

The training was also a great opportunity to connect with one another. Because many of our drivers spend their days out on the road serving the community, we don't often get the chance to gather in the same room. It was wonderful to catch up with coworkers, share updates, and learn more about the important work happening across our organization.

Investing in our staff helps us better serve our riders and the community!

Did you know riding the bus can give you something many of us wish we had more of - extra time?

Instead of focusing on the road, you can:
📖 Read a book
📧 Catch up on emails
📺 Stream your favorite TV show
🎵 Listen to music or a podcast
😌 Simply relax and enjoy the ride

Public transportation turns travel time into "me time," helping you stay productive, entertained, or refreshed while getting where you need to go.

Let TRUE Transit do the driving while you enjoy the journey! Learn more or schedule a ride at TRUEtransit.org.
