State, Federal

A new transit route through the heart of the University of Utah campus will feature a fully electric city bus powered by WAVE technology. The shuttle will operate a regular service to coincide with light rail commuter traffic coming from downtown Salt Lake City and its suburbs. The bus will be charged wirelessly from a WAVE charging station located under the roadbed as it waits for the light rail train. The project is being funded by a grant from the Federal Transit Administration.
