It is the mission of TARTA to be the most innovative and responsive transit system. The reason TARTA exists is to enable people to access the activities of our community through public transportation. TARTA will provide access in a manner that is reliable, timely, safe, accessible, affordable and friendly.
TARTA’s services include fixed line, Call-A-Ride, Game Shuttle, Park-N-Ride and TARPS, providing millions of passenger trips annually throughout the Toledo region. Fixed line bus operators drive the largest of TARTA’s vehicles and must possess a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). TARTA’s paratransit service, TARPS, provides nearly 300,000 trips annually throughout the TARTA service area for ADA-eligible passengers. TARPS operators drive smaller vehicles and are not required to possess a Commercial Driver’s License.
To uphold the mission of serving our community, applicants must meet the following requirements for all TARTA positions:
A background worthy of public trust; a background check free from infractions and driver’s license suspensions
High School Diploma/GED
Must be at least 21 years of age
