From the Record: Free GRT? Waterloo Region to consider transit passes for festivals and events
I'm curious what the uptake will be during those three events in Cambridge (I wish they identified which). Am I recalling correctly that GRT offers free service on Oktoberfest nights near some venues, and on New Year's Eve? It would be nice to extend that to other events, too, and show people who don't currently take transit that you can take the bus sober, too.
Edit: Hey, just realized that it's the Maple Syrup Festival this weekend. That would be a great event to offer free transit; maybe next year.
