ENSacRT Celebrates California Clean Air Day with Fare-FREE Rides
on Wednesday, October 7, 2026
Free Rides and Cleaner Air
Did you know that single occupancy vehicle transportation is the single biggest source of air pollution in California? On California Clean Air Day, help clear the air by trying an alternative form of travel. Leave the car at home and try transit for free! In doing so you may realize that public transit can improve your daily commute.
SacRT is offering complimentary rides on fixed-route bus and light rail on Wednesday, October 7, 2026, with a “Ride Transit” flyer. This is our way of celebrating California Clean Air Day and offering you an opportunity to join us in reducing pollution and supporting a cleaner, healthier California. Print or screenshot the flyer to ride fixed-route bus and light rail fare-free on October 7, 2026.
