The T Celebrates its Silver Anniversary
On Saturday, November 8th, The T marked a historic milestone—25 years of service. Since its creation in 1983, The T has nearly doubled annual ridership from 5.2 to 9 million passenger trips. To thank T riders, employees and the communities it serves, The T launched a series of yearlong celebrations that began with a Customer Appreciation Day for passengers at the Intermodal Transportation Center.
It's been a fun ride with The T.
The Fort Worth City Council proclaimed November 8th as T Day, and The T invited community leaders to a reception for current and past T board members. The Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce honored The T with a special luncheon featuring guest speaker T. Boone Pickens who has commended The T nationally for its pioneering conversion to compressed natural gas vehicles.
The T also rolled out a six-month “Text-to-Win” content with a grand prize of a premium transit pass good for the next 25 years!
