MCT Holiday busses back on local roads

Madison County Transit says the “Holiday Buses” will be back on the roads in December, giving travelers a free ride. 

From Dec. 1-31, MCT will be deploying the “Holiday Bus” on three MCT buses of varying sizes throughout Madison County each day. Passengers will know they’re boarding a “Holiday Bus” when they discover that the farebox has been festively wrapped as a present, representing the gift of a free ride.

Additional festive decorations have also been merrily added to the buses as well.

“In 2021, more than 3,300 passengers were given the gift of a free ride on ‘The Holiday Bus.’ I’m grateful to the MCT Board of Trustees for their continued support of this program as it offers a fun way to thank our riders for their loyalty and support,” said MCT Managing Director SJ Morrison. 

“Our drivers, who are already goodwill ambassadors year-round, enjoy the opportunity to spread a little extra holiday cheer”
