The Clayton County C-TRAN was a bus transportation system in Clayton County, Georgia that ran from 2001 to 2010. C-Tran was run by the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority (GRTA) to manage the local bus system, linking bus routes to MARTA, the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, and major commercial and academic centers in the county. C-Tran's bus fleet was powered by compressed natural gas. Due to budget shortfalls, C-Tran ended service on March 31, 2010. ==History== A bus service system was first proposed by the Clayton County Board of Commissioners and approved by the voters of the county in July 2000. On February 14, 2001, the Board of Commissioners entered into a contract for the GRTA to run the bus service. In April 2001, the GRTA Board of Directors agreed to purchase the first 12 buses. Two initial routes began on October 1, 2001, with one additional route becoming operational in February 2003. * July 2001: GRTA signed contract with MARTA to provide operating personnel and facilities for the Clayton County bus system. * August 2001: Resolution 2001-79 passed by Clayton County Commissioners, naming the new Clayton County Transportation System the "C-TRAN" system (Clayton Transit). * October 2001: Route 501 and Route 503 became operational under MARTA management. * February 2003: Route 504 became operational. * June 2004: First Transit began operation of C-Tran service after a competitive RFP bidding process managed by GRTA. * October 2, 2007: MARTA began operating Clayton County’s C-TRAN bus and paratransit service (for the second time) this week as part of a 3-year joint agreement between the agencies to improve transit service in the region. Under the agreement, MARTA will operate and maintain C-TRAN’s fleet of twenty-four buses and six paratransit vehicles and will be fully reimbursed by the County for all expenses. * August 2008: C-tran added the Breeze system to all of its buses following CCT and MARTA additions * March 2010: C-Tran ended all bus services 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「C-TRAN (Georgia)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
