Salem Transit |
I live in Salem. So even though Salem does not have a rail system, it does operate a small but good bus system. The bus system has been growing steadily in the last few years.
The system is slowly converting to low-floor CNG busses. 24 new busses from Orion should be in service by Spring 2003. This should retire many of the old RTS busses that were built in the early 1980's but are the backbone of the fleet.
The name Cherriots comes from a contest held in the 19060/70's. Salem is known as the Cherry City from all the Cherry Trees, and chariots is a conveyance, so it is a unique marketing logo.
