Ride the Bus!

A recent La Crosse Tribune article reported on the consolidation of the two La Crosse high school show choirs and noted that some students may have trouble participating because of transportation.

Wow. 

If only there were a service that moved people, safely and affordably, from one part of the city to another without the need for a driver's license or an expensive, dangerous private car. Hmmm.

We DO have such a system and it's called public transportation. Let's promote it and use it. Let's include it for school activities, community events, and daily life.

There are three MTU buses routes that stop by Central and two from the north side that connect at the Transit Center. If rehearsals were move to the Polytechnic it woud be even easier. The student passes are a great deal. Time on the bus can be used socializing or studying.

And there are other places you can get to by bus. You can take the #4 to the Earth Fair, for example. What better way to greenify your travel than to hop on a bus (if you can't bike or walk there). I think the bus route will even detour on April 28 to get riders closer to the fair entrance.

If you haven't ridden before or if it's been a while, contact us for a Ride Guide. One of our guides will meet you, ride with you, go over the maps and apps, and answer your questions so you'll be an expert rider in no time.

Let's get on the bus and encourage others to ride, too!
