HUNTINGTON — Senior citizens and all other Medicare Card Holders will be able to ride Tri-State Transit Authority (TTA) services free all day on Election Day, Tuesday, May 13.


Dial-A Ride customers will need to make their reservation 24 hours in advance. TTA dispatchers are on duty to answer any questions about schedules and routes.


For bus service, call 529-RIDE. For Dial-A-Ride service, call 529-7700. According to Vickie Shaffer, CEO, TTA traditionally offers seniors free transit on Election Day because many do not drive and it also encourages voter turn-out.
