Akron Approves First Natural Gas Filling Station

Akron city council has approved plans for the first natural gas filling station and truck terminal in the city, operated by J Rayl Transport. The company plans to convert their entire truck fleet from diesel to natural gas, or a combination of the two. The company cites the cheaper cost of natural gas, its ready availability and the fact that it is a cleaner burning fuel source as its reasons for the changeover.
