May is Older American Month, and Pasco County Public Transportation is offering senior citizens a chance to ride for free on May 15.
Passengers 60 and older will be able to board a PCPT bus without having to pay a fare, provided they show a valid identification to prove their age, according to a release.
“This is a great opportunity to introduce bus ridership to our seniors,” said PCPT manager Mike Carroll, in a release. “I encourage seniors who may not have tried to ride the bus to give it a try. Take the bus to the mall and see if you like the experience.”
Buses operate throughout the county, including along State Road 54, which travels across the county. PCPT also operates the county’s para-transit service for those unable to access transit services because of a disability, environmental barrier, or distance from a route.
