Summary
Founded in 1926, The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation is a nonprofit educational institution dedicated to the preservation, restoration, and interpretation of the 18thcentury capital of Virginia. Today, Colonial Williamsburg is the largest living history museum in the United States, with annual attendance exceeding 1,000,000.
With hundreds of thousands of visitors and employees populating Colonial Williamsburg's Historic Area, transportation is critical. The Foundation runs 25 buses and more than 200 other vehicles ranging from pick-up trucks, dump trucks, bucket trucks, step vans and passenger vans to company cars, police cruisers, and even four-wheel drive trucks with snowplows.
Before working with Penske Truck Leasing, the Foundation owned and staffed a small facility to maintain and service its fleet. Due to growing fleet demands and a need for a larger, more modern facility, Penske was selected for fleet maintenance and for design of a new maintenance facility. The Foundation sought added service capabilities in the new facility to accommodate all maintenance needs, particularly those of buses fueled by compressed natural gas (CNG). |
