Ship of Zion expanding service Beginning in November, 2006, the Ship of Zion transportation project is expanding service to the North Side. The SoZ provides free shuttle van rides to work, job interviews, and training sessions. Present routes go between Squirrel, Hazelwood, South Side, the Hill District, and now North Side. SoZ is a faith-based program designed to ease transportation barriers many residents face in Pittsburgh's job market. Getting to work is a crucial sticking point for many employees, employers, and job seekers. Riders can transfer to or from Ship routes connecting with PAT routes to get to their destinations. Workers and job seekers now have more direct transportation options, making those of us without our own wheels more able to get to where we need when we need to. Th
