MV Transportation Selected to Run Atascadero, CA Transit Service

DALLAS (April 10, 2014) – Today, MV Transportation, Inc., announced it has been selected to operate the transit service for the City of Atascadero, CA. Awarded by the Atascadero City Council, the contract begins on July 1, 2014 and covers a base period of three years with two additional one-year renewal options.

Under the terms of the contract, MV will manage the transit operation which includes close coordination with the City's vehicle maintenance and dispatch departments which are handled separately. The transit service will be provided using a client-furnished fleet of four vehicles. MV will employ six professional operators and staff to run the operations.

"We are thrilled with the Atascadero City Council's decision," said Kevin Klika, President and Chief Operating Officer for MV Transportation.
