Austin Mayor Steve Adler would like to push a plan to deem Wednesday's "Austin Don't Rush" Day.

Alder said in a statement that he would like to keep as many drivers off Austin TX roads as possible during peak rush hours, asking Austinites to work from home, or shift hours to later in the day, and encouraged the use of public transportation.

Austin's Capital Metro is making all service on all buses and trains free on Wednesdays.
