The Metropolitan Transit System has started its first electric Rapid bus service, serving the communities of Otay Mesa, Nestor and Imperial Beach.
This new service for MTS, which launched on Sunday, will feature 12 60-foot electric buses, the first articulated electric vehicles in the MTS fleet. To celebrate the launch of the new service, Rapid 227 will be free to ride through Halloween.
