TAP into Transit Day will be held on July 8, 2025, and marks the official public launch of the TAP into Transit campaign—a regional fundraising and awareness initiative supporting GRTC’s Zero Fare program.
The event will celebrate the progress our region has made toward zero-fare transit, engage riders and community members and introduce GRTC’s new articulated buses into service. It will also serve as a call to action, encouraging individuals and businesses to support the cause and help keep zero fare, zero fare.
