KAWARTHA LAKES: Lindsay Transit if getting into the Christmas Spirit by offering free rides until Saturday, December 21st. “This is a great way to say thank you to our transit users and to encourage residents to continue to use our services,” explained Transit Supervisor, Kerri Lyn Hele. “Offering free transit while there are more people out doing their holiday shopping, visiting friends and attending appointments is a good opportunity to show the value of our services.” During this free two week period, Lindsay Transit expects to gather important information about ridership numbers, frequency of use as well as highest volume routes and stops. The data collected will assist Lindsay Transit staff in the efforts to plan for the future and appropriate resources for services offered.
