Unitrans may operate fare-free up to 15 days per year on declared Spare the Air days by sparetheair.com or Excessive Heat Warnings as defined by the National Weather Service. Four free days remain after July 24.

 

According to the National Weather Service, an "Excessive Heat Warning is issued within 12 hours of the onset of extremely dangerous heat conditions. The general rule of thumb for this Warning is when the maximum heat index temperature is expected to be 105° or higher for at least 2 days and night time air temperatures will not drop below 75°; however, these criteria vary across the country, especially for areas not used to extreme heat conditions."
