Bus Tire Chains

Butler Transit Authority is pleased to announce that its commuter buses have been outfitted with drop tire chains. The tire chains can be engaged by the driver when a loss of traction occurs on wintery road conditions.

This drop-down chain system is similar to those used by municipalities and emergency vehicles. Funding was made available by the Bureau of Public Transit/PennDot.

The Authority operates a fleet of five, 45 foot Made in America MCI coach buses that travel between Butler and Pittsburgh.
