[August 27, 2014]  LINCOLN - There’s a safer alternative to driving for anyone who has too much to drink this holiday weekend.

On August 30 and 31, Safe Ride will be available in Lincoln to those who need it.

Safe Ride is a free ride home, sponsored by the Healthy Communities Partnership.

“Safe Ride keeps the streets safer on nights when children and families are more likely to be celebrating away from home. Our hope is that the community will remember the service is available and that bartenders will suggest it when necessary,” said Angela Stoltzenburg, Healthy Communities Partnerships Manager.

In 2014, Safe Ride will be available Halloween, the night before Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.

To receive a free ride home within the city limits on any of these nights, individuals should ask their bartender for a ticket. A Green Cab will provide the ride home at no charge to the rider.
