In this paper, new optimal \((pm,m)\) and \((pm,m-1)\) ternary linear codes of dimension 6 are presented. These codes belong to the class of quasi-twisted codes, and have been constructed using a greedy local search algorithm. Other codes are also given which provide a lower bound on the maximum possible minimum distance. The minimum distances of known quasi-twisted codes of dimension 6 are given.
