VTA’s Chief of System Safety and Security Aston T. Greene added to the conversation on crisis management and potential threats in the workplace as we approach what some expect to be a contentious election day. Our thanks to Applied Materials for hosting this important conversation along with General William Walker, Chief Security Officer, Allied Universal Rachelle Loyear, Vice President, Integrated Security Solutions, Allied Universal, Mike Kihmm, Senior Manager of Corporate Security, Irvine Company, Christopher Deringer, CISSP, CPP, PCI, PSP Global Security Operations Manager, Applied Materials. From safety training plans and security certification programs, to promoting a culture of prioritizing the mental health of employees, Aston emphasized the importance of being prepared and proactive for emergencies before they happen. “We don’t plan for ‘if’ something will happen. We have to plan for ‘when’ it will happen.” By having practiced training plans in place, we react to emergencies with logic instead of emotions.

When the City of San José doubled down on efforts to fill buildings downtown, VTA stepped up. We're looking forward to being part of the downtown community in walking distance of TWO light rail stations and bus service.

Happy Customer Service week to our entire Customer Service Dept. To our customers…don’t forget to thank a friendly VTA customer service rep whenever you can! Even a small gesture like “How’s your day going?” Can make a difference in someone’s day.
