    Yamhill County Transit (Yamhill Transit) has awarded a contract to Complete Coach Works (CCW) to supply three, 30-foot and two, 35-foot remanufactured Gillig buses.

    To promote social distancing, Yamhill Transit will add five remanufactured buses to its fleet. The buses will service its local routes in McMinnville and Newberg, Ore.

    “Adding rehabbed buses to Yamhill’s fleet will not only minimize overcrowding, but will provide Yamhill a large savings over acquiring new buses,” said Jim Paul, regional sales manager at CCW.  “Purchasing rehabbed buses is the most cost-effective and efficient way to provide safe and reliable transportation to its riders.”

    This rehab project will take place at CCW’s headquarters located in Riverside, Calif. The rehabilitation will include replacement of the original engines with Recon Cummins ISL engines. In addition, the buses will include Allison B400R transmissions, new driver seats, new floors, new interior and exterior LED lighting and ADA compliant wheelchair ramps. The buses will then be painted and decaled to reflect Yamhill’s branding.

    “We look forward to the successful completion of this project. Our goal is to improve customer satisfaction. We are elated Yamhill will be able to offer a more comfortable experience to its passengers,” added Paul.
