PDRTA RECEIVES TOP HONORS FROM THE SOUTH CAROLINA DOTposted on Monday, May 24, 2010 The Pee Dee Regional Transportation Authority (PDRTA) brought home two top SCDOT awards from the recent Transportation Association of South Carolina (TASC) conference: Best Urban Transit Provider of the Year, and bus operator Amy Ragin was named best driver of the year. The best driver award was presented to Ms. Ragin at the Statewide Rodeo Banquet on Saturday, February 6. Ms. Ragin, a native of Dillon, has been employed by PDRTA since June 2006 and has received Employee of the Month awards on two separate occasions.
