Spokane Transit Offering Free Rides For Vaccine Appointments

Spokane Transit is offering free rides to people who need help getting to a Covid vaccination appointment.

The agency says, from now until June 12, it will offer door-to-door rides as an incentive with a second free ride a few weeks later if the vaccine recipient receives a dose of Pfizer or Moderna.

People who take advantage of this will ride on S-T-A’s paratransit vans. The agency says up to three passengers will be aboard, sitting at least six feet apart. Passengers must wear masks while onboard.

The agency says it’s responding to a call by the state Board of Health for local transit providers to help with the vaccine outreach work.

You can call 509-328-1552 to make an appointment for a ride.
