Pardon our dust
On Monday, June 29 PARTA will begin a renovation project at its administration building located at 2000 Summit Road in Kent. The project is expected to take several months. During this time the public will have limited access to the facility. The main entrance will remain accessible during the initial phase of construction with access to PARTA's outer lobby only. The inner lobby, restrooms, and boardroom will not be accessible.
As a reminder, riders may purchase fixed route bus fare through the EZfare app. The app is free to download for both android and Apple smartphones. Riders who wish to purchase EZfare smartcards can do so at the Kent Central Gateway transit center in downtown Kent. Dial-A-Ride tickets can be purchased online, by phone (330.678.7745), or at any Huntington Bank branch in Portage County. If using cash to pay for fixed route or Dial-A-Ride service you must have exact fare, drivers cannot make change.
Happy Anniversary America
PARTA is celebrating the 250th Anniversary of the nation's founding with a patriotic bus wrap. The red, white, and blue design features a stylized flag running the length of both sides of the bus with a medallion at the rear. An image of the Statue of Liberty along with the phrase "Let Freedom Ring" highlight the street side. The curb side features the phrases "United We Stand" and "Freedom Rides On." Keep an eye out for the patriotic addition to PARTA's fleet as it travels routes in Kent and Ravenna.
