Texas Veterans Commission Grant Program

Sun Metro has once again been awarded a grant by the Texas Veteran Commission to provide monthly bus passes and LIFT rides to eligible veterans, dependents, and surviving spouses. The program will restart on July 1, 2024.

The service offers rides on Fixed Route, Brio, and LIFT paratransit service in the form of 30-day passes. Qualified veterans and eligible dependents/spouses can request a new pass within one week of the current pass's expiration date.

To apply, veterans and their dependents/spouses can fill out our Application for Texas Veterans Form or call Sun Metro at 915.212.3333. Individuals who previously participated in the program do not need to reapply; they can simply call 915.212.3333 to confirm their information.

The program is subject to funding availability, with funds distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.

For more information contact the Sun Metro Call Center at 915.212.3333.
