SEAT is pleased to announce the arrival of five (5) new 35’ Gillig transit buses. These buses are clean-diesel units, and will hit the streets beginning March 9, 2020. These buses are equipped with the revolutionary “Quantum” wheelchair securement system, which does not require belts and straps and can be operated by the customer.

Wednesday, March 4, 9:00 AM – 11:00 AM, Norwich Transportation Center

Thursday, March 5, 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM, New London Water Street

Customers with mobility devices are encouraged to stop by and try out the new Quantum system.
