To build the future of transit, no agency or company can do it alone. At Damera, we believe collaboration is the catalyst for meaningful change — especially when it comes to delivering scalable, sustainable mobility to communities across North America.

From underserved towns to dense urban cores, the need for adaptable and cost-effective transit is growing. Our approach connects the right vehicles, the right technology, and the right partners — helping agencies go further, faster.

‍

The Challenge: Modern Mobility Needs a New Approach

Transit agencies today are being asked to do more with less. Communities want reliable, flexible, and eco-friendly options — but traditional fixed-route systems are costly and often underutilized in low-density or suburban areas.

The result? Transit gaps, growing car dependency, and a lack of access for seniors, students, and workers without personal vehicles.

‍

The Solution: Right-Sized Vehicles + Strong Partnerships

Damera bridges that gap with fully electric, ADA-compliant minibuses like the Karsan eJEST — designed specifically for low-volume, short-trip, and on-demand applications.

But the bus is only the beginning.

‍

Our collaborative model combines:

‍

• ✅ Custom vehicle design and deployment
• ✅ Integration with app-based ride platforms
• ✅ Charging infrastructure and driver training
• ✅ Ongoing support and maintenance
• ✅ Data-backed planning and route optimization
• ‍

We work with forward-thinking partners — including operators like ARGO and Circuit — to deliver services that adapt to community needs and scale as demand grows.

Proven in the Field

‍

• Oakville, Ontario
  All 15 Karsan eJEST buses in Oakville Transit’s Ride On-Demand program have surpassed 50,000 km in service, delivering flexible, zero-emission mobility to underserved neighbourhoods.
  ‍
• Nantucket, Massachusetts
  A clean, quiet shuttle service powered by the eJEST is connecting key areas on the island and easing congestion, while offering a more accessible transit experience.
  ‍
• West Palm Beach, Florida
  Circuit’s downtown service—using eJEST minibuses—demonstrates how compact electric vehicles can thrive in tight, dense urban environments with high foot traffic.
  ‍
• Saint John, New Brunswick
  Saint John Transit launched its FLEX West on-demand microtransit service using eJEST vehicles—reducing operational costs dramatically while extending service to low-density routes and improving hours of operation.
  ‍
• Santa Maria, California
  The city added Karsan eJEST minibuses to support its commitment to sustainable public transportation, improving service flexibility while cutting emissions.
  ‍
• Minnesota Valley Transit Authority (MVTA), Minnesota
  MVTA integrated the eJEST into its microtransit fleet to increase rider coverage between main corridors and provide efficient service to areas underserved by fixed routes.
  ‍
• Cape Ann, Massachusetts
  Cape Ann Transportation Authority recently added fully electric, low-floor eJEST buses to its fleet as part of its commitment to cleaner, more accessible transit options.
  ‍
• Tecumseh, Ontario
  Tecumseh introduced its first electric eJEST minibuses, replacing diesel vehicles and demonstrating the city’s proactive steps toward sustainable, community-focused transportation.

‍

These case studies prove that when the right vehicles are matched with strong partnerships and community support, the result is reliable, cost-efficient mobility that meets real-world needs.

Why Collaboration Matters

‍

Partnering with Damera means you’re not just buying a vehicle — you’re getting a complete transit solution backed by decades of operational experience.

Together, we can:

• Launch new services faster with fewer internal resources
• Reduce total cost of ownership through smarter deployment
• Build ridership through real-time data insights and customer feedback
• Align service delivery with what people actually want — and use

When riders are satisfied, they become advocates. They share their experiences with friends, neighbors, and coworkers. That word-of-mouth trust fuels growth that’s sustainable and community-driven.

‍

The Outcome: Smarter, More Inclusive Transit

‍

Our partnership model delivers measurable results:

‍

• Aligns service with local needs through demand-based planning
• Maximizes cost savings by matching vehicle size to usage
• Enables scalable, phased rollouts for cities of any size
• Improves rider experience with more access, flexibility, and comfort
• Supports long-term success through ongoing technical and strategic support
