METRO needs more drivers. Decides to do more in-house work.
METRO had to reimagine ways they could bring in new employees to operate their services to recover from losses they faced during COVID-19.After reaching a low of 1,357 bus operators during the height of the pandemic, the greater-Houston area transit system METRO is leaning on incentive payments and provided-training to attract new operators for their Park & Ride express bus services.
“About four times a year we take a look at what routes have a high ridership and demand for services and we shift resources to where this is,” Jackson said. Although the number of METRO operators are expected to keep up with the rise in ridership – as it is still not quite at pre-pandemic levels – the transit system is not in the clear yet.
Those who are interested in working as a mechanic, can learn on the job as METRO partnered with several mechanic schools. Although the transit system currently has enough mechanics to keep up with demand of their operations, they are always looking to hire more as they continue to expand future services since recovering from the pandemic, Jackson said.
