SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Transit Authority’s board of trustees on Wednesday approved free fares to all riders on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 3.

The free fare day aims to ensure unrestricted public access to polling locations across the agency’s service area. Paratransit services, Park City Transit, and UTA’s On Demand by Via microtransit services are included in the promotion.

According to UTA, it is the sole means of transportation for many Utahns. In addition, voters who ride transit will help reduce congestion on roads and in polling location parking lots.
