National Dump The Pump Day - June 20, 2013
Ride WRTA
On June 20, 2013, American Public Transportation Association (APTA), and public transportation systems across the country will celebrate the 8th Annual National Dump the Pump Day.
In these tough economic times with high gas prices, everyone is looking for a way to save money. National Dump the Pump Day encourages people to ride public transportation (instead of driving) and save money.
Riding public transit is an economical way to save money, particularly when gas prices are high. The latest APTA Transit Savings Report shows that a two person household that downsizes to one car can save – on the average – more than $9,700 a year.
