Reduce your carbon footprint and enter a drawing to win prizes by riding City of Greeley buses and taking alternative modes of transportation. 

Fare-Free Summer

There’s no charge to ride city buses on all routes from now through Aug. 31 as part of the state’s Zero Fare program: coloradotransit.com/resources/zero-fare-program. This includes the Poudre Express connecting Greeley with stops in Windsor and Fort Collins. Buses are equipped with bike racks for added convenience. Bus stops are conveniently located near parks, city recreation centers, outdoor pools, and splash parks. These locations make it handy for recreational opportunities, particularly for students on summer break. Visit greeleyevanstransit.com for route information. 

Win Prizes

Taking alternative modes of transportation pays off in more ways than one through August. Commit to bike, walk, take public transit, carpool, vanpool, or telework as part of a regional summer challenge. You’ll be entered into a prize drawing if you log at least four trips a month in June, July, and August. Details and registration at nfrmpo.org/shift
