CONGRESSMAN SALAZAR ANNOUNCES GRANT TO CITY OF PUEBLO

 
 

 

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Salazar announced today that the U.S. Department of Transportation has issued a grant in the amount of $186,670 to purchase a new bus for Pueblo Transit.

“I will continue to push for grants like this because Pueblo Transit is often the only form of transportation to and from work for those who use it,” Rep. Salazar said,  “This grant is an important investment in the local economy."

Pueblo Transit operates over 1 million trips annually in the Pueblo area and is used extensively during the Colorado State Fair.
