ORT is not just transportation, it’s a whole vibe 🚌✨

Public transit is more than transportation. It’s access to healthcare, jobs, groceries, independence, and community.

Every day, ORT helps connect people across Northwest Arkansas to the things that matter most. ❤️

This is what transit makes possible.

The Springdale E.A.S.T students from J.O. Kelly and Helen Tyson spent most of the school year researching and creating an interactive experience highlighting the history along ORT Routes 61 & 62... and today they presented the finalized project! 👏

This project uncovers stories, landmarks, and history from around our community that many people may not even know about. Soon, riders will even be able to scan QR codes at select bus shelters to explore the experience while riding through the area.

We are so proud of these students and the incredible work they put into preserving and sharing Northwest Arkansas history in such a creative and meaningful way.

Explore the project yourself here:

POV: public transit has its own horror genre.

Featuring:
• missing the bus by 2 seconds
• game day traffic
• downtown parking prices
• “wait… this isn’t my stop”

What would make YOUR top 5? 👀
