City offers free transit on New Year’s Eve
Locals will have access to a safe ride on New Year’s Eve, thanks to a long-running partnership between the City of Prince Albert and SGI.
Residents can grab a free ride on transit busses all night long thanks to the 29th annual Ding in the New Year program launched today at city hall. Busses will run from 8:15 p.m. Dec. 31 to 3 a.m. Jan. 1 along four routes. Special needs transit services will also be available, a new addition this year. Route information can be found on the city website.
“This year we’ve added special needs transportation,” Mayor Greg Dionne said. “That’s a big plus for us because we want to have an all-inclusive community.
Dionne said special needs transit will operate on an appointment basis, similar to a taxi except without the hefty bills.
