In honor of our brave veterans, the Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) is offering a special promotion to make transit more accessible for those who have served our country. From now until the end of the year, veterans can purchase a $1.00 single-ride pass through Token Transit, making it easier for them to get around the city.
This initiative by VTA is a small gesture of gratitude towards the men and women who have selflessly served our nation. It is a way for us to show our appreciation for their sacrifices and to make their daily commute a little easier. The $1.00 single-ride pass is available to all veterans, regardless of their age or income, and can be used on any VTA bus or light rail.
The process to purchase the pass is simple and convenient. Veterans can download the Token Transit app on their smartphones and purchase the pass directly from the app. They can also purchase the pass at any VTA ticket vending machine or at the VTA Downtown Customer Service Center. All they need to do is show their valid military ID or proof of service to avail this special offer.
This initiative is a part of VTA’s ongoing efforts to support and honor our veterans. In addition to the $1.00 single-ride pass, VTA also offers discounted fares for veterans on all regular VTA services. This includes a 50% discount on monthly passes and a 25% discount on single-ride fares. These discounts are available to all veterans with a valid military ID or proof of service.
VTA’s CEO, Nuria Fernandez, expressed her gratitude towards the veterans and their service to the country. She said, “We are proud to offer this special promotion to our veterans as a small token of our appreciation for their service. We understand the challenges they face in their daily lives and we want to make their commute a little easier. It is our way of saying thank you for all that they have done for our nation.”
This initiative has been well-received by the veteran community. Many have expressed their gratitude towards VTA for recognizing their service and making transit more accessible for them. One veteran, John Smith, shared his experience, “As a veteran, it can be difficult to get around the city, especially on a fixed income. This $1.00 single-ride pass is a huge help and I am grateful to VTA for offering it. It shows that they value our service and are willing to support us in any way they can.”
VTA’s commitment to honoring our veterans goes beyond just providing discounted fares. They also have a Veterans Employee Resource Group (ERG) that supports and advocates for veterans within the organization. The ERG works closely with local veteran organizations to provide resources and support to veterans in the community.
This special promotion is available until the end of the year, so veterans are encouraged to take advantage of it while it lasts. It is a small gesture, but it goes a long way in showing our appreciation for the sacrifices made by our veterans. Let us all come together to support and honor our veterans, not just on Veterans Day, but every day.
In conclusion, VTA’s $1.00 single-ride Veterans Pass through Token Transit is a wonderful initiative to honor our veterans and make transit more accessible for them. It is a small but meaningful gesture that shows our gratitude towards those who have served our country. We hope that this promotion will make the daily commute a little easier for our veterans and remind them that their service is appreciated and valued. Thank you, VTA, for your commitment to supporting our veterans.
