1.12.2005: Meldung: Carmanah Awarded Four-Year Contract from Community Transit in Everett, Washington

Carmanah is pleased to report it was recently awarded a four-year contract from Community Transit in Everett, WA to provide its proprietary i-STOP? and i-SHELTER™ solar LED lighting systems as part of the agency"s upgraded stops and amenities program.

Everett"s Community Transit has 259 coaches and approximately 1,600 bus stops that provide service to most of Snohomish County, the University of Washington, Seattle and the Eastside. In 2004, Community Transit provided more than 7.7 million passenger rides. With so many stops being served, cost-effective lighting solutions are needed to ensure safety for the passengers during the night schedule.

Carmanah"s i-STOP? solar LED bus stop provides illumination to the bus stop"s posted schedule, a security area light, and a bus signaling device that alerts drivers that there is a passenger waiting at the stop. The bus signaling device, called the i-SIGNAL™, has a visibility range of change to miles and helps to reduce the number of night-time pass-bys.

The i-STOP? illuminated bus stop uses high-intensity LEDs for all of its lighting features, ensuring a long, reliable operating life with no scheduled maintenance. The system is rugged, compact, vandal resistant and cost-effective.

The i-SHELTER™ solar LED lighting system is the most reliable bus shelter lighting system in the industry. Using Carmanah"s field-proven technology, the i-SHELTER™ system is a cost-effective, low-maintenance customer service solution that provides illumination to bus stops without the need for trenching, cabling or grid power hookups. The i-SHELTER™ is also designed to operate without scheduled servicing for up to 5 years.
