Honor Rosa Parks and Celebrate Transit Equity Day with Free Bus Rides!

January 16, 2025 General, SacRT News

SacRT invites you to join us in commemorating the legacy of Rosa Parks on Transit Equity Day, Tuesday, February 4, 2025. Rosa Parks' brave act of defiance on a bus in 1955 ignited a movement for civil rights and transit equity, paving the way for greater accessibility and inclusivity in public transportation.

As a tribute to Rosa Parks, we are designating a seat at the front of every bus with a special "Reserved for Rosa Parks"sign. This gesture serves as a reminder of her courage and the ongoing importance of equity and inclusion in transit.

In honor of her contributions and her birthday, all rides on SacRT's fixed-route buses will be FREE with a free ride flyer on this special day.
