At last week’s PRT Board meeting, we had the honor of recognizing four remarkable individuals who recently completed their terms on the PRT Board. A heartfelt thank you to Jeffrey Letwin, Ann Ogoreuc, John L Tague,Jr, and Michelle Zmijanac for your many years of dedicated service to the board and to our region. Serving on the board of a public transit agency requires a remarkable level of dedication and a significant investment of time and energy. Their commitment to improving public transit has had a direct impact on the quality of life for everyone who relies on it each day. We are deeply grateful for all they have done for our agency and the communities we serve. #PublicTransit #TransitLeaders #CommunityImpact #BoardService #Transportation #PRT #PublicTransportation #ThankYou

🚌 Celebrating a Week Without Driving in Pittsburgh! 🚌 Join PRT in embracing sustainable transportation as "Week Without Driving PGH" gets underway today! Week Without Driving PGH, an initiative organized locally by Bike Pittsburgh, Pittsburghers for Public Transit, Access Mob, and the AARP, is a chance for regular drivers to get on the ground and navigate the transit system, step onto sidewalks, merge onto bike lanes, and check out infrastructure improvements throughout our city's streets. Whether you’re hopping on one of our buses or light rail vehicles, cycling through the city's scenic routes, or enjoying a stroll, now’s the perfect time to discover the convenience and beauty of Pittsburgh without a car. At PRT, we're proud to play a key role in reducing traffic congestion, cutting emissions, and connecting our communities. #PublicTransit #Sustainability #Pittsburgh #WeekWithoutDriving #TransitInnovation #publictransit #PRT

🎉 Exciting times at PRT as we kick off this year's United Way of Southwestern Pennsylvania campaign! We're proud to have so many of our employees stepping up as volunteers to help lead the charge. To set them up for success, we hosted a dedicated Day of Training, where United Way HQ shared invaluable best practices and insights. With roles and tasks in hand, our volunteers are ready to get started and make a difference! Last year, our incredible team raised over $142,000 for this great cause – we can't wait to see what we'll achieve together this year! #UnitedWay #CommunityImpact #PRT #Volunteering #MakingADifference

More than 7,000 stars, each with a different name. Each represents those who were killed while serving in Desert Storm, Iraq, and Afghanistan. PRT invites our communities, riders, and employees to pay their respects this weekend outside Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Hall & Museum Trust, Inc. in Oakland for the return of the GoldStars Tribute Wall. Volunteers from PRT's Veterans ERG will assist with setting up the wall tomorrow morning, and it is expected to be open for visitation starting Friday evening and continuing throughout the weekend. Don't miss your chance to pay your respects to those who paid the ultimate price for those freedom and remind their families that their loved ones will never be forgotten. Pictures 👇 are from the tribute wall's inaugural trip to Pittsburgh last year. #ultimatesacrifice #veterans #thankyou #prt #military

Join our agency in saying congratulations to the top finishers at this year's PRT Roadeo/Rodeo! At the rail rodeo earlier this month, Ed Rich came out on top. At Sunday's bus roadeo, Michael Gerken captured first place, followed up by Angel Session and Charles Greenwade. All three bus operators work at our East Liberty facility. Michael will travel to Austin in April to compete with other operators from across the country at the American Public Transportation Association International Bus Roadeo Conference. PRT thanks the dozens of operators who participated in both competitions! Their skill and dedication amazed everyone in attendance! PRT is also grateful for the efforts of the many volunteers who helped make the event a huge success. It was a great day filled with impressive performances, fun activities, good food, and great company. #PRT #APTA #publictransit #rodeo #roadeo #competition

PRT's Bus Roadeo is happening today at Castle Shannon Park & Ride and we wouldn't be prouder of our employees! Dozens of our amazing bus operators are competing by getting behind the wheel and showing off their skills in a variety of tests! Some of PRT's rail operators competed last weekend and wowed us with their capabilities as well! We will reveal who reigned supreme at each competition in the coming days. PRT is grateful for each and every operator for what they do for our agency and our riders, day in and day out! #PRT #rodeo #roadeo #rail #publictransit #competition #employees
