(DAYTON, OHIO)… To celebrate America’s workforce, the Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority (RTA) is offering free rides systemwide on Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 4, 2023.
To further the celebration, the RTA’s “Proudly Serving” Kettering bus will be in Kettering’s Holiday at Home parade, which takes place on Labor Day from 9:55 a.m. to noon. The bus design features places in the Kettering community where the RTA can take you. It also includes Bart Simpson, who is voiced by Kettering native Nancy Cartwright.
Due to the parade, Far Hills Avenue will be closed from Dorothy Lane to Shroyer Road from 9:30 a.m. to noon. That means RTA’s Route 6 will need to be temporarily rerouted from approximately 9 a.m. to noon.
The temporary southbound reroute from Far Hills Avenue is as follows: the bus will turn left onto Dorothy Lane, right onto Shroyer Road and then left onto Far Hills Avenue to continue its regular route. The northbound reroute will be in reverse order.
