The purpose is to “Celebrate America’s workforce,” a spokesperson said.

The RTA’s ‘Proudly Serving’ Kettering’ Bus will be in Kettering’s Holiday at Home parade which takes place today from 9:55 a.m. until 12 p.m. on Labor Day.

The bus design features places in Kettering where RTA can take passengers and includes Bart Simpson, who is voiced by Kettering native Nancy Cartwright.

Far Hills Avenue will be closed today starting at 9:55 a.m. until 12 p.m. and it also means RTA’s Route six will be temporarily rerouted, according to the spokesperson.
