Free METS Rides in Evansville

The Evansville Metropolitan Transit System (METS) is promoting public transportation by offering FREE bus fare on November 8th, from 6:15 am through the end of the day. METS invites everyone, especially those who have NOT ridden a METS bus or have not ridden in a while, to take advantage of this opportunity. METS officials want to remind us that the use of public transportation eases traffic congestion, and overall emission output, and reduces the overall cost per trip.
