HRT, Suffolk Transit offering free rides on Election Day
HAMPTON ROADS, Va. (WAVY) — If you plan on voting Nov. 4, but don’t have a way to get to the polls, local transportation authorities have your back.
Both Hampton Roads Transit and Suffolk Transit are offering free rides that day so everyone can get to the polls and make their votes count.
“It really fosters the sense of connection to your community, an ability to be independent,” said Suffolk Transit Manager Maria Ptakowski.
Transportation is one of those things you don’t think about — until you don’t have it. That’s why Suffolk Transit and Hampton Roads Transit are offering free rides on election day.
