Ground was broken in Fredericton today for the city of Frederiction's new transit operations centre.
The Transit operates eight bus routes throughout the municipality. The transit centre will provide a storage and service facility for the fleet of 28 transit buses and three para-transit buses and allow for future growth of services.
The total cost for this project is $6.1 million with a federal contribution of $5.7 million from the 2006 Public Transit Capital Trust and $423,000 from the City of Fredericton.
