CARTA To Offer Free Rides To The Polls On Election Day

The Charleston Area Regional Transportation Authority (CARTA) will offer free rides to those making trips to the voting polls on Election Day, November 7th. The special service will allow citizens to easily and efficiently access polling locations. 

To receive fare-free transit, riders are asked to communicate with drivers that they are traveling to or from their polling location.

“Exercising the right to vote should not be limited by access to transportation,” said CARTA Board Chairman Mike Seekings. “CARTA is pleased to help riders roll to the polls free of charge and encourages everyone to vote next Tuesday.”

Riders can locate their designated polling location by visiting scvotes.gov. The CARTA system map is available here.
