Sacramento Regional Transit has been awarded a significant grant of $76.8 million to enhance its sustainable transportation infrastructure. The funds will be utilized for the purchase of new hydrogen fuel cell buses, renovation of a bus maintenance facility, and the implementation of a workforce development initiative in collaboration with American River College. The project, scheduled to commence in 2025 and conclude by 2028, will feature a new garage with maintenance bays, an operations control center, storage capacity for 125 buses, and a hydrogen fueling station. This advancement is propelled by the Federal Transit Administration's grant program, part of the bipartisan infrastructure law, signifying a pivotal investment in Sacramento's transit future. The transformation aligns with SacRT's mission to achieve a fully zero-emission fleet by 2040, fostering innovation and environmentally friendly practices in public transportation.
