Extreme heat has made daily life tough in Charlotte, but the city’s stepping up: free bus rides now take anyone straight to cooling centers, splash parks, and rec centers all over town. These spots aren’t just for cooling off—they’re open longer, with special hours for seniors and young adults, and staff are even checking on homeless camps to offer water and info. Local pools and libraries are pitching in, too. It’s a big community effort to keep everyone safe and comfortable. Have you used any of these cool-down spots, or seen neighbors taking advantage? What else could help folks get through this heat? #Transportation #Charlotte #HeatWave
