Governor Pete Ricketts has proclaimed April 10-16, 2016 as Public Transit Week in the State of Nebraska. The Metro Transit Board of Directors has also passed a resolution reaffirming this recognition and extending their thanks to all Metro employees for their important role in delivering high quality transit service to the Omaha area.
Metro encourages customers to download a Thank-You Card to give to their favorite bus or MOBY operator.
Metro will also celebrate Nebraska Public Transit Week by offering riders surprise free-fare promotions throughout the week. Lucky riders boarding during these 30 minute time periods will ride for free on all routes! These free fare periods will be randomly selected by our dispatching center and announced on the buses. When the 30 minutes is over, regular fares will resume.
On Saturday April 16th, Metro will host “Stuff the Bus to End Hunger” at Baker’s on 120th & Center from 8:00am to 2:00pm, with all proceeds going to the Food Bank for the Heartland. Those that donate a food item will receive a free 2 ride bus ticket.
