Transfer Information

The success of transporting customers is based on the quality of service we provide.The Greater Dayton RTA has developed the following transfer policy to accommodate customers connecting from one bus to another to reach their final destination.

1. All customers paying with cash or a token who require a second (2nd) bus to complete a one-way trip to reach their final destination must purchase a $.25 cent transfer. A transfer cannot be issued or sold for another transfer.

2. All transfers will print the time issued with the date, route, bus number, and expiration time of 90 minutes.

3. Transfers are good for one (1) use only and will be validated by the fare box and collected by the operator. Transfers MAY NOT be used for a stop-over or a return trip.

4. Passengers are encouraged to make transfers at the first (1st) connecting point between two (2) routes. For the convenience of our customers, transfer points have been established outside the downtown area. Please assist your customers by identifying transfer points for more efficient trip planning.

5. Downtown Central Business District area can be a transfer point for all routes (except 23, 24, 32, 34, 60, 61, LS service). Downtown area is defined as Northbound Main and Monument to Southbound Main and Franklin to Eastbound 3rd and Wayne to Westbound 3rd and Robert.
