Earlier this year, Sioux Falls Transit replaced 17 of its fixed-route buses with new buses. These buses came with a new look, including a different color and different graphics. After the new buses arrived, the Transit Marketing Committee decided a name other than Sioux Falls Transit would better compliment the progressive, urban look of the new buses.

The public assisted with the process by submitting name ideas and an Augustana Graphic Design Art class helped by creating a new logo.

The name is now Sioux Area Metro with a bright new logo.
