Durham Region Transit (DRT) wants residents to celebrate safely this New Year’s Eve.
Accordingly, on Tuesday, December 31, after 8 pm., residents and visitors to the region can ride all DRT services for free. DRT is offering extended service, including late night shuttles from GO Stations, until 3 am, said a media release.
“At DRT safety is always paramount,” says Bill Holmes, General Manager. “During the festive season and on New Year’s Eve, we want everyone to make the right choice. When out celebrating, have a designated driver or use DRT so everyone on the roads gets home safely.”
DRT’s free and extended service on New Year’s Eve is made possible in part by generous support from the Durham Regional Police Services Board and Ontario Power Generation.
