Free Bus Rides for Residents Looking to Beat the Heat

The Jackson Area Transportation Authority is excited to announce we will be offering area residents FREE bus rides to local cooling centers during Heat Emergencies this Summer.

FREE “Hot Tickets” have been provided to participating area agencies to distribute to Jackson residents whose health would be at risk during a heat emergency (90° or higher). The tickets can only be used to get to participating cooling centers.

“Our Hot Ticket program can help to bring some much needed relief to local residents lacking access to air conditioning or a safe place to cool off during a heat emergency,” said Michael Brown, Executive Director of the Jackson Area Transportation Authority. “Kudos to the other organizations who continue to partner with us.”
