Harbor Transit Fleet Now Equipped with Air and Surface Disinfection Systems

Harbor Transit’s fleet now boasts newly-installed CASPR disinfection systems, adding another
layer of protection for its passengers and employees. The CASPR (which stands for Continuous
Air & Surface Pathogen Reduction) transit model is specifically designed for buses and trains
and destroys 99.96% of pathogens both in the air and on surfaces, including COVID-19 and
other viruses, bacteria, mold, and odors.
CASPR utilizes a Natural Catalytic Converter (NCC) to create highly effective and safe levels of
hydrogen peroxide molecules out of ambient air. CASPR’s molecules then circulate the air and
land on all surfaces, destroying harmful pathogens at the cellular level. These units create no
noise, odor or residue, ensuring a safe environment for all passengers. New and returning
customers can have confidence in riding Harbor Transit with CASPR units purifying air and
surfaces on each bus 24 hours a day.
Transportation Director Scott Borg is hopeful that the installation of the CASPR units will
reassure those who have been hesitant to ride the bus. “This cutting-edge technology now
implemented in our fleet is the future of safety in public transportation,” Borg said. “With the
continuous disinfection CASPR units provide on each bus, we certainly hope that anyone who
has been hesitant to return to public transportation will now feel safe to do so.”
Harbor Transit saw a steady increase in ridership in 2022, with numbers approaching pre-
pandemic levels.
