Greater Dayton Area RTA is offering free rides to the polls for the 2024 Ohio primary election.

If you can’t get a ride to the ballot box for Ohio’s primary, just take the bus.

The Greater Dayton RTA will provide free bus rides to polling locations on March 19. The rides are for both fixed routes and paratransit services.

The Transit Authority recommends using the RTA app to find the bus stop closest to their polling location.

More information is at iriderta.org. That link can also be used for those without a smartphone to find the best bus route to the polls.

RTA has been providing free bus rides to the polls on election day since 2018.

A chance meeting with a volunteer in a college computer lab in 1987 brought Mike to WYSO. He started filling in for various music shows, and performed various production, news, and on-air activities during the late 1980s and 90s, spinning vinyl and cutting tape before the digital evolution.
