Plans to replace the Janesville Transit System bus fleet are rolling along. JTS Director Rebecca Smith says an $ 800-thousand federal grant announced Thursday is the last piece of the funding puzzle. Smith says the money will help pay for the final two busses among the city’s fleet of 17 put into service 13-years-ago. The city recently received six replacement transit busses with nine more on order for next year. Smith says without state and federal grant dollars, the city could never begin to afford the quality transit services it offers. The final two new busses of the city’s 17 vehicle fleet should arrive sometime in 2021.
