Lindsey: Opening Doors to the Community
The vibrant arts and culture opportunities of Lane County are one of Lindsey’s favorite things about living here. She values sharing the community with her two children. Whether they’re visiting the library, weaving through the Saturday Market, or seeing art up close with local art walks, exploring the city is a regular family activity.
Managing a busy family schedule while keeping expenses down is a challenge for many families. For Lindsey, LTD’s free Student Transit Pass has become an essential tool for her family’s adventures.
“Having that ability to get on the bus,” Lindsey says, “it allows me to show my kids the community.”
All K-12 students in public, private, charter, and home schools can get a free bus pass from their school. By using these passes, Lindsey can focus on quality time with her kids looking out the window as the bus rolls through town, rather than traffic and transportation fees. The passes remain valid year-round, ensuring that getting to school, summer activities, and after-school events are always within reach.
“Quite frankly,” Lindsey says, “without the student passes, we’d be very limited on where we could go.”
These trips are about more than just getting from point A to point B. They are about the excitement of riding the bus to soccer practice and the comfort of knowing the operators by name.
When riding LTD, “I feel safe,” Lindsey says. “I know a lot of the drivers by name. They know me by name. Get on the bus. You’re safe and secure. You’re on your way to your destination.”
By removing transportation barriers, the Student Transit Pass empowers Lindsey to provide her children with every opportunity to learn and grow. For families across Lane County, reliable public transit is the key to helping every neighbor Connect to What’s Possible.
