Transit Month is back and it's BIGGER than ever! San Francisco Transit Riders and Seamless Bay Area are proud to host this year's Transit Month! Transit Month is a time to celebrate, learn about, and discuss the public transit in San Francisco and the surrounding region, as well as the operators who make it all possible.    Transit Month will take place from September 1 through 30th. This year’s Transit Month slogan is “Explore the Bay Area this September,” highlighting all the events hosted within all 9 Bay Area regions, and encouraging riders to discover neighboring cities. Now more than ever, good public transit is essential to our economy, our sustainability, and to safer streets. Learn more at transitmonth.org
