To ride free, use the Fare Free Friday pass on the GoMobile app. If you already have the GoMobile app, the Fare Free Friday pass has been added to your wallet. Don't have GoMobile? Download the app today and your free pass will be there. 

College students enrolled in the Go-Pass and U-Pass programs will continue to use their free college pass. Partners include California Baptist University, La Sierra University, Moreno Valley College, Mt. San Jacinto College, Norco College, Riverside City College and UC Riverside.

When waiting at a bus stop, it is important to make yourself visible to the bus driver. During the day that is easy. Just stand up and wave to the driver.

At night it can be difficult for the driver to see you at stops that are not well-lit. To help you, RTA has installed Spin To Be Seen reflective signs for you to signal the driver.

As the bus approaches, spin the wheel and the reflection will glow and alert the driver you are at the stop. Stand near the bus stop pole and signal the driver.

You can also wear bright clothing, carry a flashlight or use the light on your cell phone to become more visible.
