Due to the Ministry of the Environment issuing an air advisory for Prince George, The City of Prince George will be offering free transit on Wednesday, for the entire day. If the air advisory continues, the free bus rides will also continue until the end of the day when the Ministry of Environment says the air quality is better.
"All transit buses will switch their digital signs to display stating 'Free Fare for Clean Air' and will cover the fare boxes so passengers will not be able to deposit money," said Mike Davis, City of Prince George spokesman.
Ongoing information about the free rides due to poor air quality can be found at www.busonline.ca, the BusLine number at 250-563-0011, and at Prince George Transit at 250-563-6665.
