Metro Transit is kicking up its safety measures a notch a year into the coronavirus pandemic.
Starting Monday, Metro Transit will use a new antimicrobial technology to reduce the spread of bacteria, viruses and other germs on its transit systems. Its maintenance crews will use a fogging device to create a protective barrier on surfaces that lasts for 30 days.
Bi-State Development President and CEO Taulby Roach said the new technology is a game-changer.
“This product allowed us to add an extra element of protection for the health of the public and for our customers,” Roach said. “And what we want to show the public is that we re going to take every measure that we can to create a system that is safe and clean and ready for them.”
