This week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Hamilton County Commissioner Katherlyn Geter - For County Commission District 5 and School Board Member Thessela White aboard Route 4 for a tour of District 5!

Along the way, we made a stop at Brothers Bagels for a bite to eat and some great conversation.

Thank you both for your thoughtful questions, engaging discussions, and the opportunity to share a firsthand look at CARTA and the communities we serve. We appreciate your time and interest in public transportation!
