Lubbock’s public transportation provider Citibus implemented a new fare structure for its Paratransit and On-Demand services on Jan. 1st. Our Samantha Larned reports Paratransit fares are based on the trip’s proximity to a fixed route and on-demand fares are determined by trip distance. Lubbock Fire Rescue said in a press conference yesterday that an infant was legally surrendered to first responders at the Safe Haven baby box at Fire Station 9. Officials say this is the first baby surrendered in a Safe Haven box for the state of Texas.
