PSTA Ends Year by 'Paying It Forward'


Tonya Farmer of St. Petersburg, FL, was traveling with three young children at a Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) bus stop on Dec. 31 when a PSTA employee presented her with a free three-day bus pass as part of its new bus pass launch. “It kind of shocked me,” she said. “I thought it was just going to be a normal day, but this is really going to help me out—a lot.” The agency distributed 10 free passes throughout the service area. PSTA Director of Communications Cyndi Raskin-Schmitt said, “We didn’t want to just introduce a new bus pass. We wanted to show our riders that these new passes will make their lives a little easier. We wanted to fill their day with kindness.”
