The Santa Cruz Metropolitan Transit District will participate in California Clean Air Day by offering free fares throughout Santa Cruz County, including trips on the Highway 17 Express and ParaCruz, on Wednesday, Oct. 2.
Organizers of California Clean Air Day emphasize “simple, individual action” people can take in their community or daily life to improve air quality.
In a release, Metro said that it was encouraging its own employees and community members to take a Clean Air Day “pledge” to take simple action items on the day, such as “remote meetings, planting a tree or garden, food composting, buying local produce and of course riding public transit.”
