Come out to Transit Week, a celebration of public transportation put on by the San Francisco Transit Riders. It kicks off Monday, Sept. 24th and features lots of transit-oriented programming and activities through Friday, Sept. 28th.
We’re thrilled to be part of this third annual event as one of Transit Week’s sponsors. And as the agency that oversees Muni, the greenest public transportation in North America, we think Transit Week is a terrific way to recognize the riders who keep the air cleaner and the city moving by choosing transit.
The SF Transit Riders have come up with a great way to celebrate people who ride transit -- Tuesday through Friday mornings you can find transit hubs across the city giving out goodies and hosting fun activities. You can catch SFMTA staff at Friday’s transit hub at Van Ness Ave. and Market St. from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. Swing by to snag snacks, giveaways, and share a quick note about your favorite Muni line!
You can also participate in Transit Week over social media – when you ride, just tweet with the hashtag #WeRideSF.
More details can be found the San Francisco Transit Riders webpage, but here’s a quick snapshot of the San Francisco activities. See you there!
