The Denton County Transportation Authority will provide free rides to and from certain Denton County polling locations on Saturday, Election Day.
The following DCTA services will offer free rides on Election Day:
- A-train commuter rail
- Connect Bus (serving the city of Denton)
- UNT Campus Shuttle (serving the UNT campus and Denton)
- GoZone rideshare (serving two zones, Denton and Lewisville/Highland Village)
“We want residents within our service area to have every opportunity to get to the polls on Election Day in Texas and to participate in our democracy, and we are doing our part by making it easy for people to get to the polls,” said Paul Cristina, Chief Executive Officer of DCTA. “We feel strongly that offering free rides to the polls will help our neighbors take an active part in electing our leaders and having their voices heard.”
The free rides will be available all day Saturday and will not require documentation from riders.
