The Regional Transportation Commission is encouraging everyone to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day responsibly and to never drive impaired. For the 12th year, the RTC is offering free transit services to provide safe transportation for people celebrating the holiday.
All regularly scheduled transit services will be free on St. Patrick’s Day, Tuesday, March 17 from 4 p.m. to midnight. The downtown circulator bus, the RTC SIERRA SPIRIT, will have extended hours operating until midnight.
“This is a great way for people to be safe and responsible, but it’s also an opportunity for people who may not have ridden the bus before to try it out for the first time,” RTC Executive Director Lee Gibson said.
To plan a trip, go to http://RTCwashoe.com and use the Google Transit feature on the homepage. There is also information on routes and schedules.
