OC Transpo

Special 2 for 1 transit fare deal on Clean Air Day – June 7

Ottawa – OC Transpo will once again offer a special fare deal on Clean Air Day to encourage residents to try transit. On Wednesday, June 7, transit riders who pay a fare can bring along a friend for free. 

This special one-day offer encourages residents to leave their car at home and try transit as a more environmentally friendly way to get to work or school. By choosing smart alternatives like public transit, residents can help protect the environment by reducing the number of vehicles on the road, which helps reduce pollution and traffic congestion. 

Customers who are new to transit can get help planning their trip by calling 613-741-4390 or going online to OC Transpo’s Travel Planner at www.octranspo.com/tp

This 2 for 1 offer is just one of many activities happening during Canadian Environment Week. 

For further transit service information, call OC Transpo at 613-741-4390 or visit octranspo.com.
