Cornwall Transit’s vehicle fleet has been enhanced with the acquisition of two new fully-accessible Handi-Transit buses. The two new buses from Creative Carriage Ltd. arrived in November and the maintenance staff at Cornwall Transit has been busy preparing them for the road by adding the familiar blue and white stripes and installing fare boxes, bus radios, antennas and other equipment. The new buses have replaced two 1997 Handi-Transit buses and they offer a variety of accessibility features such as yellow stanchions, wide doors and large ramps, no-skid flooring, easy-reach stop bell signals and wheelchair restraints. A typical Handi-Transit bus travels about 35,000 kilometres in a year and the service itself provides an average of 41,000 passenger trips annually. “These new buses will serve Cornwall residents well for years to come,” said committee chair Ron Bonneville. Pictured are Gay Sullivan, Linda Varga, Kara Seguin, Len Tapp, Ian Larkin, Ron Bonneville, Rick Lapierre, Manon Levesque, Councillor Elaine MacDonald, Jean Marcil and Sara White.
