🔊 Listen · narrated by Aiden

Grant Transit Authority (GTA) is soliciting proposals for purpose-built battery-electric minibuses. The request for proposals (RFP 26-01) closes on February 13, 2026, at 3:00 PM at GTA's Moses Lake office.

GTA, which serves Grant County, is seeking bids for minibuses as part of a broader effort to modernize its fleet. The authority's administrative offices are located at PO Box 870/116 W 5th Ave in Moses Lake. Proposals can be requested by calling (509) 765-0898 or emailing Brandy Pesta, Administrative Services Manager.

This RFP follows GTA's 2022 decision to implement permanent fare-free service and its 2023 System-Wide Transportation Analysis. The new minibuses will replace older vehicles as part of GTA's long-term transit planning.
