Proposed Fares & Services Updates

The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) is PROPOSING changes to its transit fares and services to help address rising operating costs and increased demand, while maintaining reliable service. These changes include fare increases and pass eliminations for both paratransit and transit riders, as well as route and timing changes for transit service.
 
We encourage all transit and paratransit riders to provide input now through June 23, 2026 by visiting rtcsnv.com/transitupdates. All proposed details and two short surveys are available.

These changes will impact you!
