Wednesday, September 25, GoTriangle’s Board of Trustees announced they have accepted the resignation of Charles Lattuca, Chief Executive Officer and President of the agency. Additionally, the board named Byron Smith, General Counsel for GoTriangle, to serve as acting CEO and President.
The board made its decision during today’s board meeting.
Anyone who has waited for a bus in the heat or cold, rain or dark knows that when it comes to bus stops, amenities – like a covered shelter and lights – matter. For many years, GoTriangle, the regional transit authority, has been working to build and improve the network of bus stops across Durham, Wake, and Orange counties to get travelers where they need to go in safety and comfort.
After suspending fares during the COVID-19 pandemic, GoTriangle will return to collecting fares on July 1, 2024, with new options for passengers that include digital ticketing and a convenient pass for low-income riders to ride fare-free. Youth (ages 13-18) and seniors (ages 65 and older) will still ride free (as they did pre-pandemic) after they enroll in one of the GoPass programs that allows them to use the Umo digital ticketing platform.
RALEIGH, NC (Feb. 20, 2024) - Today, Hoffman and Associates, in partnership with GoTriangle, is pleased to announce a call for artists to design and implement art for the future Raleigh Union Station Bus Facility, known as RUS Bus, in downtown Raleigh’s Warehouse District.
Research Triangle Park, NC (Dec. 27, 2018) – Two or three times a year, Pierre Tong happily leaves his car at home and takes GoTriangle Route 100 to Raleigh-Durham International Airport, so he finds it perplexing that the No. 1 misconception he hears about transit in the Triangle is that there is none to the airport.
The increasing popularity of GoTriangle’s long-distance express routes is just one reason the regional transit agency is trying out a higher-capacity transit coach over the next month. The 45-foot MCI coach bus can comfortably carry 54 riders, nearly 20 more than a regular 40-foot bus, potentially cutting down on the number of buses that will be needed to transport an expanding Triangle population up and down Interstate 40.
