AKRON, OHIO – The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company announced it has been awarded a supply arrangement by Dart Transit Company, the nation’s 14th largest truckload dry-van carrier, and its network of companies, based in Eagan, Minn.

Under the arrangement, Goodyear will supply replacement and retread truck tires and tire services in North America for the Dart Network through 2008. More than 2,700 tractors power Dart, which once operated primarily east of the Rockies. However, in May, the privately held company expanded its service in seven Western states.

Goodyear is supplying commercial tires to the Dart Network from its plants in Danville, Va.; Buffalo, N.Y.; and Topeka, Kan.

The Dart Network runs 2,750 trucks and 7,600 trailers.
