City of Reedly Grant for the Central Valley Transportation Center

The Fresno County community of Reedley will install a compressed natural gas fueling station as the first phase of its Central Valley Transportation Center.

Working with the Kings Canyon Unified School District, Reedley is building a state-of-the-art, Leader in Environmental Design (LEED) facility that will house, repair and maintain a fleet of green vehicles. The facility will be open to the public and will eventually provide compressed natural gas, biodiesel, E-85 dispensers and electric charging stations. The project puts Fresno County on the cutting edge of changing transportation technology.
