CARTA announced Tuesday that it will no longer require customers to wear facial coverings on their buses, but strongly recommends that people continue to do so for their protection and safety. The Federal Transit Administration and the Transportation Security Administration have lifted the mask mandate on public transportation.
CARTA’s Executive Director Lisa Maragnano states, “We provide an essential service to the community by offering transportation. The safety of our operators and customers is always our number one concern. We encourage everyone to adhere to the CDC’s guidelines and take precautions for your own safety and well-being.”
