How Routes Are Prioritized
Each city submits route requests, and ORT addresses them on a first-come, first-served basis. Before launching any new service, we ensure there are enough drivers, buses, and resources to operate sustainably. These Bentonville updates reflect years of planning and preparation to better serve our community.
We’re excited to launch these improvements and appreciate your support as we work to provide better public transit. Visit our website for updated route maps, schedules, and more information. Thank you for riding with ORT!
