Hop on the bus.
Riding a Metro Transit bus makes such
great sense. By taking the bus even some
of the time, you will save hundreds of dollars a year on gas, parking,
and car maintenance. You can use the time on the bus to read, chat, balance
your checkbook, or just relax while you leave the driving to someone else.
Visit the Commuter Display in the Network222 break room
for Metro route maps and schedules. Bus passes are available for purchase
in the front lobby.
