Bingaman Secured Funds to Benefit Los Alamos Bus System

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman today announced that the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) is releasing $588,000 in federal funds he secured to purchase new buses in Los Alamos. Bingaman secured the funding in a fiscal year 2008 spending bill.

Atomic City Transit will use the funding to purchase four new buses to add to the fleet.

"This funding is an important investment in Los Alamos's transit systems," Bingaman said.
