Pierce Transit is now one of a handful of public transportation agencies worldwide to utilize the rapidly growing online social networks of Facebook and Twitter. The agency hopes these social media platforms will allow Pierce Transit to communicate with an increasing number of riders and area residents who are customizing the news they receive with online applications. Facebook and Twitter will complement the agency’s Web site, press releases, and rider alerts.
