Trinity Metro is celebrating its 40th anniversary by offering free rides to all passengers traveling in Tarrant County during November.
The free rides include all buses, TEXRail, ZIPZONE on-demand rideshare services and ACCESS paratransit, the transit service said in a news release. Free rides also will be offered in the west zone (between Fort Worth T&P Station and CentrePort Station) of Trinity Railway Express, the release said.
“Trinity Metro has been an integral part of the community for 40 years,” said President & CEO Richard Andreski. “We want to celebrate our 40th anniversary by offering free trips throughout November as a way to thank our loyal riders – and to invite new riders to try our transit network.”
Trinity Metro is a regional transportation system that began operating on Nov. 8, 1983, as the Fort Worth Transportation Authority.
The agency has celebrated a number of milestones during its anniversary year, including two million rides on TEXRail, the commuter rail line introduced in 2019. The 27-mile line runs between downtown Fort Worth and Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport’s Terminal B.
