Santa Monica's Big Blue Bus will provide free rides for everyone on Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2025, in observance of the eighth annual California Clean Air Day.
The transit system is encouraging residents to reduce their carbon footprint by participating in the statewide day of environmental action. Officials are asking community members to take the Clean Air Day Pledge, which involves abstaining from driving and choosing sustainable transportation alternatives instead.
California Clean Air Day represents a coordinated effort across the state to promote cleaner air through reduced vehicle emissions. The annual event encourages residents to consider how their transportation choices impact air quality and public health.
Big Blue Bus serves as Santa Monica's public transit system, providing an alternative to personal vehicle use throughout the city and surrounding areas.
Residents planning to take advantage of the free rides can visit bigbluebus.com to plan their trips and access route information. The website offers tools to help passengers navigate the transit system and plan efficient journeys using public transportation.
The free ride initiative aligns with broader efforts to promote sustainable transportation options and reduce air pollution in the greater Los Angeles area.
