The popular Ten Toe Express program, which combines walking, sightseeing and learning to use public transit in the St. Louis area, is returning in April. 

The three-month program features weekly events in which participants meet at a light-rail or bus station, ride a MetroLink train or bus and then walk to a location of interest. Past destinations have included the National Blues Museum and Ballpark Village.

“It’s a great opportunity to get out in the community and meet new people while using transit,” says Sheila Holm, community outreach director for AARP in St. Louis. 

AARP sponsors the program, which is run by the nonprofit Citizens for Modern Transit. The goal: to encourage healthy living and ensure safe, reliable transportation options for residents of all ages.
