Palm Tran, Palm Beach County’s public transportation agency, has again achieved a one-year ridership total of more than 10 million for fiscal year 2009 (Oct. 1, 2008 – Sept. 30, 2009). This is the second time in the agency’s 38-year history that more than 10 million riders have been served.
Palm Tran’s FY2009 fixed-route ridership increased by more than 200,000 passenger trips from FY2008. Palm Tran achieved this with the support of the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners, the efforts of its employees, county staff, and the work of the Palm Tran Service Board (PTSB), a volunteer board responsible for overseeing Palm Tran’s services.
In FY2009, Palm Tran added express bus service and new park and ride lots, improving public transportation options in Palm Beach County.
