Get excited for Extra Hours! We put together this toolkit to help our partners reach their audiences and make it easier for them to talk about transportation options.
This holiday season, Valley Regional Transit is thrilled to pilot our Extra Hours program! We’re keeping some of our most popular routes running late on Friday and Saturday nights to make it easier—and safer—for everyone to enjoy all the festivities Boise has to offer.
Whether it’s a night out with friends, a holiday party, or a late shopping spree, our extended transit service on select routes means people can get where they need to go and back home safely, all without the hassle of driving. This program also gives a boost to our local businesses, making it easier for patrons to visit restaurants, shops, and entertainment spots during peak times.
As one of our valued partners, you’re invited to help us spread the word! Here’s how you can support the Extra Hours program:
Why this matters: Safe, reliable transportation during the holidays makes it easy for more people to experience everything our community has to offer. Join us in spreading the word to help ensure everyone can celebrate and travel safely!
Thank you for supporting Valley Regional Transit’s Extra Hours program. Together, we’re making our community safer, more connected, and more accessible this holiday season.
We’ve made it easy to spread the word about Extra Hours with printable posters, flyers, and more.

Print the table tent that corresponds to the route nearest your location. Make three folds, the first along page center then at the base edge of the art. From the two base edges tape the margins together (1″ on both sides) to create your table tent.
