TWC Resources Spark Interest from Regional Transit Authorities

Posted May 2024

TWC offers an abundance of helpful resources to regional transit authorities nationwide. Last month, ITLC’s Senior Director for Workforce Education Pat Greenfield highlighted these resources at a meeting with the Massachusetts Association of Regional Transit Authorities (MARTA), representing the 15 regional transit authorities across the state that provide fixed-route and paratransit service. She shared the technical assistance, initiatives, and services TWC has provided and can continue to provide to the regional authorities.

After an introduction by FTA’s Region 1 Deputy Administrator Michelle Muhlanger, who facilitated the MARTA connection, Pat led the discussion and remarked how leaders from the agencies expressed interest in TWC’s resources, including mentorship, local high school partnerships, and zero-emission vehicle resources. TWC thanks MARTA Executive Director Jeannette Orsino for the invitation, as well as FTA Regional 1 and Massachusetts Department of Transportation’s Deputy Rail and Transit Administrator Tom Schiavone for their ongoing support.
