Incident Procedures: On the rare occasion a serious incident occurs, we share confirmed information with media as soon as practicable.
When an emergency is likely to generate extensive media coverage, GoTriangle will:
- Designate a spokesperson.
- Disclose, as soon as available, the type of GoTransit vehicle involved and the number of persons on the vehicle.
- Provide a general description of the incident and its effect on GoTriangle operations.
At the site of a serious incident, law enforcement or medical personnel may restrict media access and movement. If the incident warrants, the GoTriangle communications office may designate a media staging area and provide a representative to assist media members, who will need identification for access. For some incidents, a public service agency such as law enforcement, fire departments or EMS will file a formal report that media members can obtain. GoTriangle’s own internal investigation may take days or even weeks.
Public Meetings: Media members are welcome to observe, film or record the meetings of our Board of Trustees and their committees that are open to the public. We will gladly assist you with placing cameras and microphones as needed.
For nonmedia issues, please call GoTriangle at 919.485.RIDE (7433).
