We're proud to sponsor the 2024 Youth Innovation Challenge with Introducing Youth to American Infrastructure (iyai+), focusing on sustainable transportation careers and innovation. Participants explored our hydrogen fuel cell and battery electric bus fleet, learned about the impact of our zero-emission buses, and engaged with experts on accelerating the zero-emission transition. They also discovered our sustainability initiatives. Learn more about the Youth Innovation Challenge and our ZEB fleet at actransit.org/zeb.
About us
The Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District is the third-largest public bus system in California, serving 13 cities and adjacent unincorporated areas in Alameda and Contra Costa counties. AC Transit has been serving the East Bay since 1960, taking over from the Key System and its predecessors, which carried passengers via buses, horse-drawn rail, electric streetcars, and ferries over the previous 100 years. AC Transit’s mission is to provide safe, convenient, courteous, and reliable transit service.

🌟 Yesterday, I had the privilege of joining the American Public Transportation Association Board Members Seminar in San Jose to discuss the future of public transit innovations! 🌟 It was great engaging with North American transit agencies' board members. We delved into trends like Generative AI, machine learning, automation, open loop payment systems, and data governance. These technologies are transforming operations, enhancing efficiency, safety, and customer satisfaction. Key takeaways: Embrace innovation to enhance service delivery Ensure robust cybersecurity and data privacy Prepare our workforce through continuous training Foster collaboration between business and IT Thank you to my fellow panelists and attendees for the insightful discussions. Together, we are shaping a smarter, more efficient transit future. 🚍💡 #PublicTransit #Innovation #Technology #APTA #SanJose #GenerativeAI #Automation #Sustainability AC Transit
