Wichita buses will be offering free rides to voters to help them get to the polls on Election Day, November 5th.
The free rides will be offered on all traditional bus routes and paratransit service. They will be valid for everyone riding to or from polling locations as well as any other trip during the day. Riders do not need to provide documentation of voting to receive a ride. Transit buses will operate on a regular weekday schedule with service hours that span the full voting hours of each polling location.
For Election Day 2023, Wichita Transit provided 6,144 free rides which is a 13% increase in Election Day ridership when compared to 2022.
