The May 3 Bus Display brought together a broad sampling of bus and paratransit vehicles of different sizes and varieties of engines. 

Speakers at the Opening General Session included, from left: seated, Joyce Eleanor, APTA vice chair-bus and paratransit operations; Patrick Scully, chief commercial officer for Daimler Buses North America; APTA Chair M.P. Carter; and GCRTA Board Member Jesse O. Anderson; standing, Rick Sander, president and CEO of ISE Corporation; Cleveland Heights Mayor Edward J. Kelley, also GCRTA board vice president; FTA Administrator Peter M. Rogoff; Cleveland Mayor Frank G. Jackson; and APTA President William Millar.


 

 

 

Conference participants gathered at the entrance of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum prior to attending the Welcoming Reception.

After the International Bus Roadeo, competitors joined together at the Swap Meet to exchange souvenirs (including T-shirts and key chains) from their respective transit agencies.

 

 

 

Transit professionals thronged the Cleveland Convention Center, the site of APTA’s biggest Product Showcase ever at a bus conference. There were 134 booths, with exhibitors demonstrating an array of products—from LED signs to seating to engine parts to data collection. Expert personnel were on hand to answer questions about the latest innovations in the world of bus equipment and services.

The showcase gave visitors an opportunity to obtain hands-on experience with new technologies.
