October 19, 2022 New York, New York, USA: The Routing Company (“TRC”), a global on-demand vehicle routing and management platform partnering with cities to power the future of public transit, today announced it has named Noelle Claybrook as Business Development Manager. Claybrook will lead business development under industry veteran Dick Alexander, who has been guiding TRC’s Business Development team as Vice President of Business Development since early 2022. 

Before joining TRC, Noelle was a Business Development Leader at TransLoc, a transportation technology company focusing on fixed-route and microtransit solutions for transit agencies and universities. Over the past five years, she directly oversaw deployment of dozens of microtransit pilots, led a team of business development representatives, and presented to hundreds of transit agencies on the benefits and best use-cases for agency owned microtransit services.

Noelle’s extensive sales and leadership experience will catalyze TRC’s Business Development in partnering with cities and transit agencies around the world.

"We are built for transit, which means we need the best and brightest from the transit world. With Noelle onboard, we have strengthened our leadership position in the on-demand mobility space – one that truly understands the daily demands of transit agencies,” said James Cox, Chief Executive Officer, TRC. “Our Pingo app and its features, including Transit Connect, are directly integrated with public transit infrastructure to deliver the best experience for riders through real-time routing. Our team is focused on harnessing the power of on-demand mobility to increase transit accessibility, and nobody understands this better than Noelle.”

TRC’s Transit Connect™ feature uses real-time data on vehicle positioning to guarantee connections to fixed-route transit services for riders using the Ride Pingo™ app. Ride Pingo™ is the only app on the market with this capability.

Alexander is a long-time veteran of the transportation industry, with four decades of experience leading transit operations across North America. He spent nearly 20 years with Transdev, the largest private-sector provider of multiple modes of public transportation in the United States, in senior leadership positions including Chief Executive Officer.
