SamTrans Redi-Wheels Operators Honored

The San Mateo County Paratransit Coordinating Council recently presented awards to two outstanding Redi-Wheels operators. Operators Dan Marsello of Daly City and Lee Coleman of Burlingame were honored for their safe driving and excellent customer service records.

Marsello was recognized for his considerate and compassionate demeanor and because he is always concerned about the welfare of his Redi-Wheels customers, whom he's served since 1990.

Coleman, who is known among riders for his pleasing personality and ability to make them smile, has been a Redi-Wheels driver for two years.

Redi-Wheels customers and those social service agencies served by the paratransit service play a role in selecting the drivers to be honored.

"These awards are important because they recognize the unsung heroes of paratransit," said SamTrans Accessible Coordinator Tina Dubost. "Every day, both of these drivers make a positive difference in the lives of the customers whom they serve."
