RTC honors Veterans Day with free rides on all services Nov. 11

The Regional Transportation Commission of Washoe County is honoring those who served by offering free rides to everyone on all RTC transit services on Wednesday, Nov. 11, in observance of Veterans Day.

No fare, no pass, no catch. Every rider, on every RTC service, rides free all day.

“Our veterans have given so much to protect the freedoms we enjoy every day, and this is one small way we can say thank you,” said Josh MacEachern, RTC public information officer. “We invite everyone to leave the car at home, hop on board and join the community in honoring those who served, whether that’s at the City of Reno’s Veterans Day Parade or the Nevada Veterans Memorial Plaza at Sparks Marina.”

Free fares apply across RTC RIDE, RTC ACCESS and RTC FlexRIDE. RTC administrative offices will be closed Wednesday in observance of the holiday.
