SUMMARY:Transit to Trails Bus from Manchester to Massabesic Center May 7
DESCRIPTION:Manchester Transit Authority\, together with The Nature Conservancy in New Hampshire\, is launching Transit to Trails\, a pilot program providing transportation to walking and hiking trails\, state parks and water destinations to Manchester residents utilizing the city bus service for $5: the price of a bus ticket. \nTransit to Trails is a seasonal service that will operate on the first Saturday of each month beginning May 7 through September 3\, 2022.

On those mornings\, riders can purchase excursion passes for $5 each (cash or credit) at Veteran’s Park beginning at 8:30am.
