Omnitrans Offers Free Rides on California Clean Air Day!
September 23, 2020
As the public transit provider in the San Bernardino Valley operating on a fleet fueled entirely by compressed natural gas (CNG), cleaner air in our communities is a value close to our heart. This year, we are proud to join the Coalition for Clean Air in support of California Clean Air Day on Wednesday, October 7, 2020!
Earlier this year, Californians achieved some of the cleanest air in several years due to the stay-at-home period during which people commuted much less, resulting in reduced pollution and car emissions into our environment. Fast-forward to present day, and we are seeing some of the worst air quality as wildfires blaze through California and nearby states. We have the power to change this for the better and invite you to join Omnitrans and the Coalition for Clean Air to do your part to create clean air in our communities.
Take the pledge
It starts with you. We all have the power to play an active role in protecting the health and well-being of our communities. Make your commitment to clean air official by joining the community of pledgers, then help reduce vehicle use by riding environmentally-friendly public transit to honor your pledge!
On October 7th, Omnitrans is proud to offer free rides exclusively on the free Transit app (to new, and existing users) to encourage you to leave your car at home and ride the bus for cleaner air.
