About this Event
Ready to feel confident getting around Charlotte without a car? Join us on Monday, November 23 for a hands-on transit training where you’ll learn how to use Charlotte’s public transportation in real life, with support from our team and a friendly group.
We’ll meet on November 23, 2026 at 1:00 PM in front of Trader Joe’s at the Metropolitan. Before we board, we’ll practice reading the bus schedule, choosing the right bus, and setting the correct time for our trip. Then we’ll ride the Route 6 bus, which departs at 1:34 PM, from the Metropolitan bus stop to Freedom Park. Once we arrive, we’ll explore the park and take part in a fun trivia and group activity.
We will covered your transit pass.
This experience is open to everyone, and it’s especially design for older adults and first-time riders. We’ll move at a comfortable pace, with time to rest and plenty of time to ask questions. Our team will be there to help anyone who needs a hand boarding the bus, finding a seat, or getting around the park. If you have any mobility or accessibility needs, let us know when you register so we can plan ahead.
