Vanpooling has been highly popular with suburban commuters. Now the program comes to rural North Central Pennsylvania where a commute can often exceed 20 miles and last an hour or more each day.
The Vanpool Advantage Network is a program operated by the Area Transportation Authority of North Central Pennsylvania (ATA). The Vanpool Advantage Network is supported by the Federal Transportation Administration Division of the United States Department of Transportation. It is also supported by the Bureau of Public Transportation, a part of the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation.
