Steamboat Springs Transit is one of the most innovative fleets in Colorado. Aside from riding free in all Steamboat Springs buses, the transportation company, subsidized by the local government, is converting to hybrid buses.
Just last 2018, the company was covered in CBS Denver, and they featured a couple of the first few hybrid “buses of the future,” as they call it. The transit received a $16M grant fund together with Fort Collins, Grand Junction, Denver, Aspen, and Durango. These towns will split the grant total and start the journey towards creating a greener fleet.
SST is a reliable service for locals and tourists. Every year, they log about 620,000 miles from their 15 transit buses. They have a total of 40 full-time bus drivers that operate during business hours. They operate buses daily from Steamboat Springs west to Milner, Hayden, and Craig.
