Meet the newest member of Public Safety’s green fleet, our second Chevy Bolt!
Our commitment to environmental responsibility is a key part of our ongoing mission to ensure the safety of the Columbia Community. In 2008, we started moving toward a sustainable fleet with our first hybrid vehicle. As of 2017, when we converted the last gas-powered evening shuttle to a hybrid, the entire Public Safety fleet of 23 vehicles and two shuttle buses is green.
