Chittenden County Transportation Authority (CCTA) was the public transit system headquartered in Burlington in Chittenden County, Vermont. CCTA served the communities of Burlington, Essex, South Burlington, Winooski, Shelburne, Williston and Milton.[2] As well as providing regular bus routes to these member municipalities, CCTA also served parts of Colchester and had express routes for commuters travelling between Burlington and Montpelier, Middlebury, and St. Albans.[3]
On March 17, 2014, a strike by the bus drivers' union shut down bus service, which was restored on April 4, 2014, after settlement of the strike.
On January 22, 2016, it was announced that the CCTA will be renamed to Green Mountain Transit, completing a merger with the Green Mountain Transit Authority to become a regional system.[4] As of October 2016, the merger has been completed.
