At the March 26th BoCC meeting, the Board recognized LeeTran for having earned the Florida Public Transportation
Association’s designation as the 2012
Transit System of the Year and extended their gratitude to all LeeTran employees for bringing this honor to Lee County
for the benefit of its residents and visitors and for the commitment and
dedication each of you bring to the job every day.
The proclamation stated:
LeeTran has demonstrated excellence through the development of its
25-Year Vision Plan, and by earning such national awards as $13.9 million for
the acquisition of clean, diesel-electric hybrid buses, $1.4 million for
improvement to Veteran’s transportation systems, and $5 million for the
construction of a new transit facility; and
LeeTran has shown sustained increases in ridership, including a
17% increase in fiscal year 2012, and now serves a total of 3.76 million riders.
Kudos to LeeTran! |
