In conjunction with National Volunteer Week, Topeka Metro will celebrate local volunteers by offering free rides April 16 through April 21. Volunteers will receive unlimited free rides on the fixed routes and Lift passengers will receive up to two free rides per day.
Volunteers must present a volunteer photo ID to the bus operator upon boarding. If a photo ID is not available, passengers may present a letter acknowledging their volunteer service along with an alternate photo ID upon boarding. The letter must be on company letterhead and signed by a company official.
"Volunteers are the lifeblood of many agencies in Topeka. We want to honor those who donate their time and effort to volunteer to help others in our community," said Topeka Metro General Manager Susan Duffy.
