Planning to vote on Election Day? Long Beach Transit will get you to and from a polling place for free.

On Tuesday, all regular bus routes and Dial-A-Lift service (scheduled rides for people with disabilities) will be fare-free for all riders. The goal is “to reduce transportation barriers that might otherwise impede voter participation,” according to a news release from LB Transit.

More than two dozen vote centers in Long Beach are open daily through Tuesday. (Find a voting location or ballot drop box here.)
