| dbo:abstract |
The Metropolitan (METRA) Transit System is the primary provider of mass transportation in Muscogee County, Georgia, United States. The agency is the successor to the Columbus Transportation Company, a privately owned bus company founded in 1924 that had operated as the primary bus service in Columbus and Phenix City. In 1967, the city of Columbus purchased the Columbus Transportation Company and its assets after the company's bus services became unprofitable, with the city renaming the now public entity the Columbus Transportation System (later renamed METRA). In 1978, METRA assumed certain bus routes to nearby Fort Benning, which had been operated by Howard Bus Lines, a privately owned bus and cab company that ceased operations and filed for bankruptcy in 1978. Currently, ten routes serve the city, providing service Monday through Saturday. (en) |
