Stamford Public Schools Transition Program recently invited CTtransit to host a presentation on how to ride the bus for their students. The big surprise was their own private ride on a Battery Electric Bus and tour of downtown Stamford and surrounding neighborhoods. A great time was had by all and we hope to see these students on the bus soon for employment and other daily transportation needs.
