Rear Boarding and Free Fare on ART Buses Starting March 24

March 23, 2020

Starting Tuesday, March 24, Arlington Transit – ART bus riders will enter and exit all ART buses using the rear doors only. Customers who require the use of a wheelchair ramp can still enter the bus through the front door. ART will also be suspending fare collection on all ART buses since the farebox is located at the front door.

These measures are being put in place to protect bus operators and reduce the spread of the COVID-19 virus. ART will continue to take precautions to keep passengers and bus operators safe, including deep cleaning and sanitizing all buses thoroughly at the end of each night.

Arlington Transit encourages social distancing on all buses and asks that riders use ART for essential travel only.
