June is Ride Transit Month, it's the perfect time to Connect with a New Commute and WIN!

Whether you’re going to work, running an errand, going to the park or wherever you’re headed, riding the bus is a perfect way to get there!

You save money! Gas is EXPENSIVE, you can end up draining your wallet when you fill up! A tank of gas can cost $60 or more and only gets you so far, a monthly transit pass breaks down to $2 a day and is unlimited trips!

You save time! Leave the stress and worry of commuting to Spokane Transit! Most people get so busy they don’t get much “me” time, riding the bus gives you a chance to relax and spend your “me” time how you want!

You keep it green! Did you know; a typical bus has over 30 seats, that’s more than 30 cars off the road! This reduces traffic congestion, air pollution and fuel consumption helping to make the Inland Northwest a much better place to live, play and commute! Check out this photo displaying how much space one city bus can save on our streets!

So, help celebrate Ride Transit Month and remember when you commute whether it’s riding the bus, walking, bicycling, carpooling, vanpooling, teleworking or working a compressed schedule, be sure to track it on your commute calendar and you could WIN!

Weekly Prizes (2) $25 Gift Cards – Ride the bus 1x during the week (bus riders only), update your calendar by Monday.
Monthly Prizes (10) $25 Gift Cards – Participate 5X and update your calendar by July 8th.
Worksite Prize $10 Dutch Bros. Gift Card – Participate 1X and update your calendar by July 8th.
