AMTRAN News
New #8 Hollidaysburg Route
Duncansville Borough recently informed AMTRAN that they would not meet their local match requirement for 2012. All federal and state funding for public transportation requires local match. Without local share funds, AMTRAN is not able to provide service. In order to give our customers a chance to make other transportation arrangements, AMTRAN postponed the termination of service to Duncansville until January 31.

Update Your Rider Alerts
Customers should revise their Rider Alert preferences to reflect which routes they are riding after the service improvements that began June 13. All you have to do is click on the Rider Alerts button on the right.
Sometimes road construction or bad weather means our buses can’t follow their regular routes. If you sign up for Rider Alerts here on our website, we can alert you by e-mail or text when your bus has to go off-route.
You, the customer, get to choose which bus routes you want to know about. You decide how you’ll receive the alert - by e-mail or by text. You can add routes, change alerts, or even cancel the service when you want to. Give it a try.
“The bus is important to me because I do not own a vehicle, nor do I have any family living in
For many of us on a fixed income the notion of being able to afford car insurance, gas, and the general upkeep of a vehicle in simply unrealistic. I depend on the bus service to live within my means and maintain my independence. It gives me the opportunity to stay active and, more importantly, participate in the community I live in.”
