TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) – Again this summer, Topeka Metro will offer free rides for children.
The bus company will provide free transportation for those 18 and younger from May 1 through Aug. 30.
Topeka Metro officials on Monday announced that children under 18 can ride fixed-route buses at no cost.
“The ‘Kids Ride Free!’ program eases financial strain for families and encourages young people to navigate public transportation, as well as learning to be more self-sufficient,” said Topeka Metro General Manager Bob Nugent. “Our bus operators are supportive and make sure youth can travel safely to a variety of destinations.”
Teens may be asked to show identification. Riders under 5 years of age are required to be accompanied by an adult.
Riders can plan their trips by visiting topekametro.mytransitride.com or by calling customer service at 785-783-7000.
