Just saw this circulating, so I figured I would give you a heads up since this will interfere with some of your routes!
Happy new Year 2022
Is the buses free to ride today
I often wondered how Bus Stop Shelter locations were determined. I have 2 suggestions: 1) Penn Street/Walnut Street, Hollidaysburg PA or nearby and 2) Bus Stop in front of OLLIE's, Old 220, Duncansville PA doesnt neccesarily need a shelter but some excavating..
Look what we saw at AMTRAN, Altoona, PA's offices: a water bottle filler integrated with the drinking fountain!
The CPCF was excited to present 23 awards to non-profit organizations serving Blair County yesterday. As a part of our 2021 Competitive Grants process over $23,000 was distributed. Representatives from each organization were given their awards by CPCF Board and Committee members.
Congratulations to all of the 2021 Competitive Grant Recipients!
Thank you to the Trolleyworks at AMTRAN for hosting us. AMTRAN, Altoona, PA
Well amtran be doing bus service to DelGrosso's this year on the weekends
The best transportation in town to get to and from work to and from doctor's appointments and to and from grocery shopping thank you for your service
Everything about AMTRAN services & drivers is Exceptional! I do have a suggestion -- residents of Highland Hall have the convenience of a Bus Stop at Penn/Walnut St or Allegheny St/Union in front of Court House but it's the return trip with packages that is the challenge. Today because of a DETOUR the bus came up UNION ST, made a LEFT on SPRUCE to connect on MONTGOMERY route. It was a bonus! I / We understand on-street parking makes the roads narrow but IF AMTRAN would consider this for 3 Seasons we can understand Winter elimination. Take a ride with us and hopefully you can understand as a passenger what a blessing this would be!
