Metro Will Give Free Rides To Holiday Revelers
Don't risk drinking and driving when you can ride for free Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year's Eve thanks to Metro and Metrolink.
LOS ANGELES, CA — Metro will once again fill the role of designated driver for holiday party-goers this year, offering free rides on all Metro bus and rail lines on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
Metro's regular Sunday schedule will be observed on both days, with free rides being offered from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. On Christmas Day, Metro bus and rail will run on a Sunday/holiday schedule with limited bus lines available, and New Year's Day will follow the same schedule.
On Jan. 1, Metrolink will also aim to help ease holiday traffic by offering special service for attendees of the 129th Rose Parade. Trains on Metrolink's major lines, including the San Bernardino, Antelope Valley and 91/Perris Valley Lines, will begin departing as early as 5 a.m. Passengers will then be able to transfer at Union Station to the Metro Gold Line at no cost to reach Pasadena.
