While on her route, Shenika M. spotted a man with a cane who had fallen in the street. Without hesitation, she stopped, helped him onto the bus, and ensured he was safe. Passengers witnessed #MCTSExcellence in action...care and quick thinking making all the difference!

If you’re shoveling today, don’t forget the sidewalks and bus stops near your property. Clearing them helps everyone get around safely, especially neighbors with visual impairments or mobility devices, and supports local ordinances. Thanks for being a good neighbor. ❄️🤝

When out shoveling, please be sure to clear snow from sidewalks and bus stops along your property. This helps all our neighbors, especially those who are visually-impaired or who rely on a mobility device, and is in keeping with local ordinances and state statutes.
