Sun Tran and City of Tucson’s Department of Transportation have launched the SummerGO Youth Pass pilot program, available for purchase through June at select locations (see below) and at some local high schools before school lets out. Click HERE for a map off pools and SummerGO Youth Pass sales locations. 

The new Youth Pass provides high school-aged students (with a valid student ID), unlimited rides on Sun Link, Sun Tran and select Sun Shuttle routes as well as unlimited use of City of Tucson pools from May 22 through August 5. Additionally, the SummerGO Youth Pass offers pass holders special summer discounts at Skate Country, Funtasticks Family Fun Park and Goodness Fresh Food and Juice Bar.
 
The pilot program launches in time for the summer vacation, providing an ideal transit option for teenagers and an alternative to the current 1-Day and 30-Day pass options.
