OVERVIEW
The City of Los Angeles was looking for a trip-reduction solution to and from LAX airport that would not only reduce congestion and emissions, but be efficient and convenient for passengers while assuring a quality experience. Destination Shuttle Services (DSS) responded by creating Shuttle Smart, a first-of-its-kind private “green” transit system in Los Angeles. This system consolidates the airport shuttle services of 13 individual hotel properties in the LAX area. The consolidated services have reduced 55 percent of hotel shuttle trips through LAX, eliminating more than 100,000 hours of idling buses and more than 6.6 million pounds of carbon dioxide each year, thus reducing pollution and supporting a healthier environment.
