We hear the warnings year after year and sadly some of us don’t heed them. New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day has been known for celebrating making another year but also sadly for alcohol-related deaths on the roads in Houston ad beyond.
Beginning at 6 p.m., Metro is offering FREE RIDES until 6 a.m. New Year’s Day (January 1). Normal services will resume on New Year’s Day with normal fares resuming at 6 a.m. and local bus routes and METRORail operating on a Sunday schedule. Also, there is no Park & Ride service and all HOV/HOT lanes are closed.
If you use METROlift, customers must call the reservation line at 713-225-6716 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on Dec. 31 to schedule trips for Wed, Jan 1 and Thurs, Jan. 2.
