Rides free through the close of service on Sunday, March 15.
The Puget Sound area is experiencing cold temperatures, expected to last through the weekend. To help those who need access to transportation get out of the weather and shelter during cold temperatures, Pierce Transit is partnering with Pierce County Human Services to provide free bus, Runner and SHUTTLE paratransit (for registered SHUTTLE customers) rides to local warming centers and shelters.
The free rides to warming centers and shelters are in effect through the close of Pierce Transit’s service on Sunday, Mar. 15. The free round trips are available throughout the day and evening for passengers who tell the driver they are traveling to or from a warming center or shelter. Shelters are open in many Pierce County locations including Tacoma, Lakewood, Puyallup, Parkland and Gig Harbor.
