RIVERSIDE, CA – Complete Coach Works (CCW), North America’s leading provider of transit bus and sustainable transportation solutions, is proud to announce the successful delivery of five refurbished transit buses to Everett Transit.
The five buses supplied by our sister company, Transit Sales International, originally 2008 35′ Gillig models underwent a refurbishment by CCW. The refurbishment process included significant upfitting to meet Everett Transit’s specific needs including: 2 color exterior paint and decals to match their most recent builds; new European style frameless passenger windows; new exterior mirrors, flooring, suspension components, bike rack, fare box, and passenger seat inserts. , Updated ADA mobility device securements were installed as well as a new steering wheel, updated adjustable accelerator and brake pedal assemblies, new driver seat, new driver safety barrier, and a full camera surveillance system.
The project was conducted through the Washington State Transit Bus Cooperative Purchasing Schedule, which allows transit agencies to procure refurbished, repowered, and rebuilt buses through a streamlined and efficient process. By leveraging CCW’s expertise, Everett Transit has expanded its fleet without the high costs and long lead times associated with purchasing new buses, while also reducing its environmental impact.
Everett Transit recently joined CCW in a webinar, Revitalizing Transit: The Role of Refurbishment, where Mike Schmieder, Operations Manager from Everett Transit, shared insights on why they chose to refurbish their buses. Schmieder stated that these buses represent added service assurance, allowing Everett Transit to maintain their commitment to the community by providing greater fleet resiliency to ensure on time service performance. The decision to refurbish also showcases an intelligent use of financial resources, as for the cost of a single battery-electric bus, Everett Transit can add five refurbished buses to their fleet, supporting their commitment to financial sustainability.
