Over the last two years, the Allentown School District's partnership with LANTA has provided safe and dependable transportation for thousands of Allentown middle and high school students.
Under the partnership, ASD middle and high school students are able to ride LANTA buses for free using their school ID. During the first week of school, students are not required to show ID while we wait for ID’s to be distributed to students.
This fare-free access is only available to current ASD students and not transferable or extended to family members or other individuals. In accordance with LANTA policy, riders under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult. An adult riding with an ASD student under twelve(12) years old will not be allowed to ride for fare-free access unless that adult is also a current ASD student and has a current-year ASD ID.
The service provides added flexibility for students arriving early or late for school, remaining for after-school, activities and sports, returning for evening activities, or getting to and from work, cultural events, internships, and dual enrollment opportunities. As evidence of its success, in the current school year, the average school day ridership for Allentown School District students on LANTA is approximately 2,000.
