King County Council member Reagan Dunn has delivered “retired” county vans to programs in Maple Valley and Enumclaw.

Dunn represents parts of Bellevue on the council.

The vans are available as the result of a recent motion unanimously adopted by the Council to donate of 27 retired Metro Vanpool vans to provide transportation assistance to local governments, community programs, senior citizens and young adults. The retired vans have been part of Metro Transit’s vanpool fleet for at least six years and have reached the end of their service life. When the vans reach this age, they are considered surplus and sold.
