Sound the Horn for Transit Workers: April 16

Posted on: Apr 16, 2020

RideKC is joining transit agencies across the nation to “sound the horn” for transit workers and other front line workers who are keeping communities going during the COVID-19 pandemic.

At 2 p.m. on Thursday, April 16 RideKC bus operators will honk their horns twice, in recognition of #HeroesMovingHeroes on the front lines of this crisis. Transportation workers continue to provide critical service for healthcare workers, first responders, childcare workers, grocery store employees and other heroes who are performing critically essential work during the Covid-19 pandemic.

RideKC is joining transit agencies from coast to coast in sounding their horns, including the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) in New York City, Amtrak and many others.

We encourage everyone to sound off with their support for front line staff and all who keep going to work while the rest of the world stops. At 2:00 p.m., you can also make some noise in person or online, with a honk, whistle, or a virtual shout out.

Share a message, photo or short video of your tribute. Use the hashtags #soundthehorn or #heroesmovingheroes and tag RideKC: @RideKCTransit on Twitter or @RideKC on Instagram and Facebook.
