NEWS RELEASE
CITY OF GUELPH
*************************
Going somewhere in Guelph on June 5? Ride Guelph Transit for free on Clean Air Day between 5:45 a.m. and 12:15 a.m.
Good air quality is important to our health, our environment and the economy. That’s why we’re encouraging you and your family to choose environmentally-friendly travel options such as cycling, walking, carpooling or riding public transit.
By taking the bus and not your car, you’ll reduce greenhouse gas emissions by almost two thirds. In fact, one city bus can take 40 vehicles off the road, save 70,000 litres of fuel and keep 168 tonnes of pollutants out of the atmosphere each year. (Source: Environment and Climate Change Canada)
If you are joining us at the Future of Transportation in Guelph panel discussion from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. that evening, why not take Guelph Transit? There are 10 routes that will get you to the Delta Guelph Hotel and Conference Centre. Map your trip at guelph.ca/transit. Make sure to grab your free event ticket before you head out.
