ABBY VANS GETS MADISON CONTRACT
Monday, January 24th, 2011 -- 11:14 AM
A Neillsville company has won a big contract to provide paratransit service to the City of Madison.As of Jan. 1, Abby Vans of Neillsville became one of three companies serving city residents under contracts collectively worth about $4.5 million a year.
The city entered new three-year contracts with two local providers ? Badger Bus and Transit Solutions ? but bypassed a bid from Badger Cab in favor of one from Abby Vans.
Abby Vans currently has about 20 drivers on the job in Madison. Some are from the Madison area and some have been brought in from elsewhere until new local drivers can be hired and trained.
Paratransit service complements the same area and hours of the city bus system, but is geared toward disabled riders.
