Cobb buses getting a new look

Cobb Community Transit is celebrating its 25th year with a new look.

The county spent $330,000 developing new logos and a new look for its fleet of 105 buses, all of which are being replaced over the next two years. The new logos — Cobb LINC — will be on all replacement buses. The county hopes that the new look will lead to new riders.
