Palm Tran Welcomes Its First Articulated Buses to Busiest Routes

Palm Tran in West Palm Beach, FL, recently acquired its first six articulated buses. The 61-foot vehicles from New Flyer Industries will enter service on the system’s busiest routes beginning in April.

The articulated vehicles can seat 58 passengers and are capable of carrying approximately 80 people including standing loads.

“These buses are clearly needed, based on our growing ridership, and will enable us to increase capacity during these times of economic constraints without the additional operating costs of placing more buses on these routes,” said Executive Director Chuck Cohen.
