For residents and visitors relying upon <br /> public transportation in Macon County, DPTS provides riders <br /> with a reliable option for trips to and from work, school, <br /> doctor's appointments, and community events. Operating °..y • , ' <br /> throughout the City of Decatur, DPTS's primary service is <br /> fixed-route local bus service and complementary ADA <br /> service. Additionally, replica trolleys support the downtown <br /> movement. <br /> Our History with the City of Decatur <br /> As a partner to the City, MV brings local and regional experience with these important <br /> services, and our work is a testament to our investment in the City. Providing <br /> management over the contract for five years and a year ago partnering with the City to <br /> realize a turnkey operation, MV was pleased to play a significant role in the development <br /> of the new operating model with a shared goal of gaining a more efficient and <br /> streamlined service for the City. <br /> During an unprecedented year of change, MV and the City saw a three-week transition <br /> into the turnkey service. The transition included the deployment of an incredible new <br /> fleet supplied by the City, the global pandemic that served to strengthen our partnership <br /> as we continue to ensure the safety of our passengers and employees together, and <br /> gaining a better understanding of labor needs as we work to come to labor harmony and <br /> a new collective bargaining agreement. <br /> The accomplishments of the local MV <br /> team, led by John Ramonez, general <br /> manager, and the progress made over <br /> the past year, demonstrates we are <br /> committed to assisting the City in the <br /> next term. Looking to the future, MV is <br /> committed to an ongoing partnership <br /> with the City, and as we look forward, <br /> MV is prepared to work to meet the <br /> City's needs as public transportation <br /> changes. <br /> MV TRANSPORTATION , INC. - RFP TRANSIT #2020-01 6 <br />
