A Message From Your Howard County Executive Howard County is one of best places in the nation to live, work, and play. To maintain this standing, we must always be moving forward and looking to improve. It is imperative that every neighborhood has access to reliable and efficient public transportation. To achieve this goal, we are improving RTA bus services with the first ever, major realignment. The new service route changes will begin on Sunday, May 5th, 2019. We adjusted schedules to shorten wait times between buses and eliminated 2-hour frequencies. All buses will now operate on 30-minute or one-hour intervals. We added new or expanded service on Sunday routes. We have also added three new routes to allow for more efficient rides with shorter travel times. We streamlined routes and schedules to make them easier to understand. And our residents over 60 years old and those with disabilities will still be able to ride fixed-route buses for free, system wide. All these changes will make riding RTA more convenient, more reliable, and more efficient.
