Culver City is Dedicated to Improving Air Quality through Transit

Culver City has always been a progressive transit city, showing a strong commitment over the years to being a vital transportation resource. Culver CityBus provides significant value and enhances the well-being of the community by improving mobility options and continuing to advance the goals of environmental sustainability. Culver City has played a key role in improving the region’s mobility and air quality by helping to reduce car trips and vehicle miles traveled since 1928.

For more than twenty years, Culver City has relied heavily on alternative fuels to power the City’s fleet and has set a high standard for sustainable fleet operations. In 2004, the Culver CityBus transit fleet transitioned to 100% Compressed Natural Gas, becoming the first in the South Coast Air Quality Management District to do so, and the second in the State of California. Not only has the City’s commitment to alternative fuels achieved actual pollutant reductions within city limits, but its efforts to incorporate advanced fuel technologies into its operations have been a model for transit agencies throughout the United States.
