MATBUS invites residents to celebrate Earth Week, April 19-24, with its Get Your "Can" on the Bus promotion. Riders can board fixed route vehicles for free when they donate one empty aluminum can. Proceeds from the recycling of collected cans will be donated to the Homeward Animal Shelter. This promotion is not valid on MAT Paratransit.
Public transportation plays an integral role in protecting our environment. Did you know that one MATBUS bus full of people removes up to 50 cars from the road? That’s a line of cars approximately four city blocks long. Riding public transportation (instead of using a personal vehicle) is one of the most effective ways for citizens to reduce their individual carbon footprints.
MATBUS also reminds passengers that face masks continue to be required on all MATBUS vehicles and property. Masks must cover the face properly, including both the nose and mouth. With cooperation and understanding from passengers,
MATBUS can help everyone reach their destinations safely.
