Harbor Transit

We enjoyed a special visit this morning from a 2nd grade class! Last week, Harbor Transit staff visited the Ferry/Voyager Elementary students at their classroom, and this week it was our pleasure to give them a tour of Harbor Transit. The students got a close-up look at the bus garage, mechanic bay, and dispatch center, and learned about different career opportunities in public transportation. A great time was had by all ??

We love a good "Then and Now" comparison ?? THANK YOU to our riders and community for trusting us with your transportation needs since 1975 ??

The community has spoken - CONGRATULATIONS to our Bus Wrap Art Contest Winners, Devin Torrey and Amber Wilkes of Grand Haven ?? In addition to free Harbor Transit rides for a whole year, Devin and Amber will have their artwork featured on a Harbor Transit bus to celebrate our 50th Anniversary year. Thank you to everyone who submitted artwork for the contest, we are inspired by your creativity!

Have you ever noticed the CASPR unit at the front of the bus? These little guys pack a big punch! Each CASPR unit destroys 99.96% of pathogens both in the air and on surfaces, including COVID-19 and other viruses, bacteria, mold, and odors. You can breathe easy on Harbor Transit ??
