TARC Receives $2.6 Million FTA Grant for 10th Street brake-maintenance addition

TARC has received a Buses and Bus Facilities Program 5339 Competitive Grant Award of $2,624,000 from the FTA to be used specifically for the expansion of its existing bus maintenance facility at 10th Street.

The new addition to the bus-brake maintenance shop will consolidate maintenance operations, allowing TARC to improve bus performance on the street, and create a better, more efficient work environment for its maintenance crew.

“TARC is committed to providing great service to the city of Louisville; this award places us in a better position to do just that as we move toward implementing the New TARC Network next August,” said Ozzy Gibson, TARC Executive Director. “With the expansion of the 10th street facility, service reliability and performance across the fleet will improve for the Greater Louisville area; TARC is incredibly grateful to Secretary Duffy, Senator McConnell, Senator Paul, Congressman McGarvey, and Mayor Greenberg for their support of this grant.”
