“Riding public transit is one of the best ways to improve our air quality, and these passes will make it much easier for thousands of Salt Lakers to do so,” Erin Mendenhall said.
The passes will be available to all students, staff and faculty in the Salt Lake City School District.
The Utah Transit Authority Board of Trustees unanimously approved a transit pass program that will give employees and students in the Salt Lake City School District access to buses, TRAX lines and streetcars. “Riding public transit is one of the best ways to improve our air quality,” she said, “and these passes will make it much easier for thousands of Salt Lakers to do so.”
Students make up a huge slice of the UTA’s ridership, and officials hope offering access to the region’s transit network will encourage future use, spokesperson Carl Arky said.
