City of Rochester, CEO and RTS Bus Stop Partnership Pilot

Rochester Mayor Malik D. Evans announced a first-of-its-kind snow-removal partnership with Regional Transit Service and Center for Employment Opportunities (CEO), which will clear snow from 85 prioritized bus stop and shelter locations in the city of Rochester.

“One of the biggest challenges RTS customers face in the winter months is navigating snowy sidewalks and bus stops when they need to catch the bus,” said RTS CEO Miguel Velázquez. “This partnership will make it easier for our customers to access the transit system and inspire others to get involved and help us grow the program. I thank Mayor Evans, Commissioner Perrin and the team at the City of Rochester, as well as Jarmani Dozier from the Center for Employment Opportunities, for their partnership on this important program.” Learn more on the City of Rochester’s website.
