Thanks to funding from the 2008 bond measure, PCC Southeast has been expanded from a center to a full-service campus.
With that change the college is anticipating a significant jump in enrollment – and more demand for transportation. That’s why there’s big anticipation surrounding the Powell-Division Transit and 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网ment Project, which is studying the region’s first bus rapid transit?line and how it will bring faster, more reliable transit service to a corridor that really needs it.
