SmaRT Ride Expansion in North Natomas

SmaRT Ride, Sacramento Regional Transit's on-demand shuttle service where customers request rides within certain zones, is expanding on April 5, 2021.

The new Natomas - North Sacramento zone will expand to cover most of North Natomas, including points of interest such as shopping centers, library, schools, University Technical Institute, and North Natomas Regional Park, among others.

SmaRT Ride offers corner-to-corner service where passengers are picked up and dropped off at the nearest corner. The service runs Monday Friday, 7am to 7pm.

Students Step It Up!

Just this month, Jibe distributed more than 500 pedometers to local students as part of the Jibe "Go For Gold" Student Step Challenge. To log their pedometer counts, students use groovy chalkboard themed step logs to compare their daily goals against actual steps taken. When the challenge is completed in early April, all participants earn a fun water bottle decal and valuable bragging rights.

Do you think students will be able to meet their step goals? We say...yea!

Sacramento County Releases Climate Action Plan

Earlier this month, Sacramento County announced the release of their draft Climate Action Plan. This plan details specific measures that will be implemented in Sacramento County by 2030 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from activities and government operations. It also includes recommended actions to reduce vulnerability to the anticipated impacts of climate change.

The document is available for public viewing now, and comments on the plan will be accepted until April 9, 2021. Send your thoughts on the plan to ClimateActionPlan@saccounty.net
