City of Halifax Transportation Department
On April 26, the CPA met with Jane Fraser, Chief Administrative Officer and
Rajiv Massey, Manager Corporate Fleet of the Halifax Regional
Municipality (HRM) to present information on auto propane and its many
benefits. John Hrynisak, UPS Canada Automotive Fleet Manager, also
participated in the meeting to speak about the company’s positive
experience with auto propane vehicles in their fleets across North
America.
The HRM expressed interest in the information presented,
especially in the cost savings and environmental benefits that
propane could bring to the city of Halifax – not only with auto propane,
but also with using propane to heat municipal buildings. The CPA will
continue to work with the HRM to ensure that propane is included in
future evaluations.
