Abstract:SUNLINE TRANSIT AGENCY is a joint powers authority that provides public transit and community services to California's Coachella Valley. Headquartered in Thousand Palms, California, SunLine's service area encompasses more than 1,100 square miles and includes nine member cities (Desert Hot Springs, Palm Springs, Cathedral City, Rancho Mirage, Palm Desert, Indian Wells, La Quinta, Indio, and Coachella), as well as Riverside County. The agency's fleet covers 12 routes and serves 320,000 permanent residents and 3.4 million tourists annually. In December 2005, SunLine placed a prototype hybrid fuel cell transit bus in revenue service. SunLine's prototype vehicle was purchased as part of a four-bus procurement by Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District (AC Transit), based in Oakland, California. AC Transit has three buses in demonstration in its service area. The hot, dry desert environment in SunLine's territory will help further testing of the performance of fuel cell buses in multiple climates.
