LAREDO, Tex. (KGNS) – With summer just around the corner, the City of Laredo’s El Metro service is helping families stay connected to the city’s recreational and educational opportunities through a brand-new initiative: “Kids on the Go: Summer Youth Transportation Program.”
The program offers free, unlimited El Metro rides for all children ages 6 to 17 throughout the summer.
To participate, children must present one of the following valid IDs:
- A City of Laredo Parks & Recreation ID
- A Laredo Public Library card
- An official El Metro Kids on the Go ID
Local residents are already applauding the new program.“I think the new program speaks well of our community, building a better Laredo,” said Antonio Alvarez. “It’s an example of the hard work by our mayor and our city. We’re very proud and should keep working for a better Laredo.”
The program officially launches on Tuesday, June 3, and will run through August 31.
For details on how to get a qualifying ID and take part in the program, visit the El Metro Transit website.
