  • HOPE Grant Project – Mountains to Sea: Electrifying North Carolina’s Transit Fleets Webinar

    ​Under the Federal Transit Administration (FTA)'s Helping Obtain Prosperity for Everyone (HOPE) Grant, NCDOT IMD partnered with the Center for Transportation and the Environment (CTE) to assess and develop transition plans for the deployment of zero-emission transit vehicles in two distinct geographic areas of North Carolina.  CTE developed transition plans for AppalCART in Boone, NC and for Hoke Area Transit Service (HATS) in Hoke County, NC.  The plans include service, fleet, fuel, maintenance, and facility assessments that culminate into a total cost of ownership assessment over the life of the transition to zero-emission transit vehicles.
