Operation Bus Stop Cleanup Mission Accomplished! 🧹🚌✨

Volunteers came together this morning at the annual Adopt-A-Stop Community Bus Stop Cleanup to tidy bus stops along Central from Girard all the way to Tramway, making an immediate difference for riders and our community. Volunteers and ABQ RIDE staff worked side by side, met neighbors, learned about our bus stop adoption program, and helped beautify ABQ's transit system.

A special thanks for everyone's hard work, energy, and community spirit that made city bus stops cleaner, safer, and more welcoming for everyone.
