Robert Ruzinsky, RTA CEO, said he was proud of the way the Dayton RTA had continued to step up during the pandemic.

“Our community counts on those workers to be at our hospitals, our pharmacies, our grocery stores, our doctor’s offices, and other essential front line places, and most importantly, our community counts on RTA to be there to provide transportation to them. Our entire team is proud and committed to doing just that,” Ruzinsky said.
