Chatham Area Transit Implements TextMarks SMS Platform
Headquartered in Pasadena, CA, TextMarks provides businesses with a number of text messaging services designed to optimize communications and support company growth. TextMarks engages with a variety of business partners, including Chatham Area Transit. Chatham Area Transit (CAT), a public transportation services provider in Savannah, Georgia, recently launched stage one of its text notification service system, hosted on the TextMarks platform. The transit authority will initially utilize services to notify travelers of important interruptions or changes to services, including stop closures and route changes. CAT customers interested in receiving notifications can sign up for the service simply by texting RIDECAT to 41411. The service can also be used to learn about public meetings and other upcoming events in the community. Over the course of 2021, CAT will continue to optimize the transportation experience for customers through a comprehensive computer network update highlighted by the all new Intelligent Transportation System. The system will be implemented in both CAT facilities and vehicles.
