San Luis Obispo transit riders can access fixed-route buses for free during the week of October 7 through October 11.
SLO Regional Rideshare, a transit division of the San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG) on California’s central coast, is offering free rides between October 7 and October 11 to promote transit use on local bus lines.
According to an article in the A-Town Daily News, “The initiative, titled “No Fare, Anywhere,” allows participants to explore various public transit options without needing a bus pass.” Commuters can track and log their alternative commutes during Rideshare Week for a chance to win prizes, including a daily drawing for $200.
Residents who work in downtown San Luis Obispo can also apply for the SLO Transit Downtown Access Pass, a free, year-long bus pass.
