When his uncle passed away, TriMet bus operator Sean gifted his late relative’s electric mobility device to a rider. The donation not only kept the rider moving, but it also started a special friendship. Operator Sean’s kindness is worthy of recognition. That's why we celebrate Transit Operator Appreciation Day on March 18. Share a wave, a smile or a kind word with a transit operator. Let them know you appreciate their work and do your part to make their day! More: https://bit.ly/TDAD2025
