In recognition of Transit Driver Appreciation Day, local transit leaders worked with St. Clair County Board Chairman Mark Kern to proclaim Tuesday, March 18, 2025, as “Metro Operator Appreciation Day.” A proclamation was presented to local transit operators in appreciation of their tireless service in helping residents get where they need to go by way of MetroLink, MetroBus, Alternative Transportation Service (ATS) and flexible, on-demand, shared ride services through the St. Clair County Transit District (SCCTD) Flyer.
