SBCTA Board Recognizes Freeway Service Patrol Program Drivers

April 12, 2021

The San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) operates the Freeway Service Patrol (FSP) Program. FSP consists of a fleet of tow trucks that travel on selected San Bernardino County freeways during peak periods of congestion to assist motorists with their disabled vehicles. The FSP program has demonstrated many benefits to the motoring public by reducing the amount of time a motorist is in an unsafe condition, reducing traffic congestion, as well as decreasing fuel consumption, vehicle emissions, and secondary incidents.

On April 7th, the Board then recognized the following FSP drivers for their high level of professionalism and excellent customer service provided to stranded motorists along our freeways.
