PVTA plans expansion of facility to prepare for electric buses

SPRINGFIELD — The Pioneer Valley Transit Authority plans to expand its headquarters to consolidate its maintenance and operations in one location and prepare for a gradual switch to electric buses.

The approximately 50,000-square-foot addition will increase the existing 214,500-square-foot building by about 25% and allow the regional transit authority to expand its maintenance garage, add a paint booth and increase inside parking for 32 buses at 665 Cottage St., said Michael Petrin, senior project manager for VHB, which wrote the plans for the proposal.
