The Jackson Transit Authority unveiled a new, Trolley style bus, at Jackson’s City Hall, Thursday.

A project for the 30-foot long Trolley started about 10 years ago after Board members took an interest in adding a Trolley replica bus to the JTA fleet.

Funding delayed the project, but the Tennessee Department of Transportation assisted the JTA through the TDOT Improve Act grant program.

The City of Jackson also provided additional assistance.

The Trolley includes a unique paint scheme, wood detailing and a bell.

JTA serves the City of Jackson, Monday through Saturday – 6 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. – except for seven holidays.
