History
MAX was originally established in the year 2000 as an outgrowth of Holland's dial-a-ride bus service. Until July 1, 2007, the system was under Holland city government's direct jurisdiction. Since then, Macatawa Area Express has been governed by an independent Transportation Authority board made up of representatives from the City of Holland and Holland Charter Township.
Bus service
The MAX system consists of eleven fixed routes, supplemented by dial-a-ride service.[1] Fixed routes are operated with a fleet of Gillig Low Floor buses.[2] Each route begins at the top of each hour at the Louis & Helen Padnos Transportation Center, the system's hub in downtown Holland, which is also served by Indian Trails intercity buses and Amtrak's Pere Marquette.
