"Since July 1, 2003, the City of Pasadena has contracted with First Transit for dial-a-ride and fixed-route services. The First Transit team has been wonderful to work with and has helped us improve the transit services provided to the community. Working on the schedule times, route changes, public outreach information and operator instructions was truly a team effort between city and First Transit staff; the end result was a seamless service change and fare implementation that was well received by the community and recognized by the City Council."
