There are two different transportation services that can assist senior citizens and/or qualified citizens with disabilities. They are Ride-in-Kane, the RTA Reduced Fare Card, and the RTA Senior Ride Free Smart card. Ride-in-Kane is available to qualifying residents that live within the corporate city limits of the City of St. Charles and operates within Kane County. This service is a door-to-door bus service. The RTA Senior Ride Free Smart Card is a card issued by the RTA that allows senior citizens to travel on the Metra trains and the RTA buses for free. The RTA Reduced Fare Card is a card issued by the RTA that allows qualified citizens with disabilities to pay a reduced fare when traveling on Metra trains and RTA buses.
