Shapiro administration, transit leaders highlight how Governor Shapiro's public transit proposal would protect and create jobs, urge Pennsylvanians to thank transit operators on National Recognition Day
Scoop USA Newspaper|ScoopDigital, Vol. 5, No. 6
Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) Secretary Mike Carroll with Public Pennsylvania Transportation Association Executive Director Shawna Jones, and a rabbit-transit operator highlighted how Governor Shapiro's budget proposal to invest in transit agencies would not just stabilize and improve service but also help retain and attract the workforce critical to the services Pennsylvanians rely on.

They also encouraged transit riders to mark National Transit Operator Appreciation Day by thanking transit drivers among the more than 6,000 fulland part-time operators statewide for their service and skill.

“Governor Shapiro’s proposal shows that he values safe, clean public transit, a service that is possible because of the people who provide hundreds of thousands of transit trips every day,” Carroll said. “I invite everyone to thank their transit driver today because, without the more than 6,000 drivers across PA, people could not get to their jobs, appointments, and more.”

The Governor’s Budget proposes an additional $282.8 million investment for transit – the first of its kind in over a decade. This would be achieved with an additional 1.75 percent of the Pennsylvania Sales Tax being deposited into the Public Transportation Trust Fund.
