MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee County Transit System is turning one of its buses into the "Milwaukee Cookie Transit System," a holiday-themed bus with decorations and lights that will run on routes and appear at holiday events through Dec. 23.

The unveiling will take place on Thursday, Nov. 19 from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at Uptown 56 Park.

The event will include music and sweet treats. Regular fares are required to ride, and passengers will have chances to take photos with Santa and the elves, though the appearances are weather permitting.

The bus is scheduled to appear at:

• The City of Milwaukee Tree Lighting Ceremony on Friday, Nov. 20 from 5 to 7 p.m. at The Plaza at Deer District;
• Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin's Stuff the Bus on Saturday, Nov. 21 from noon to 3 p.m. at Pick 'n Save located at 8770 S. Howell Ave., in Oak Creek;
• The West Allis Christmas Parade on Saturday, Dec. 5 from 4:45 to 6 p.m. in downtown West Allis;
• Cocoa With the Clauses on Saturday, Dec. 12 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Cathedral Square Park.

MCTS President and CEO Steve Fuentes said the bus recognizes "the important role public transportation plays in connecting people to the places, people and experiences that matter most."
