Effective Feb. 1, 2022, Dodge City will be reinstating all passenger fees for their public transportation services. Public transportation fees have been waived since June 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, due to funding received from the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) and the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). According to Nick Hernandez, the City Manager of Dodge City, the ability to waive fees was made possible by the funds available through the State’s Public Transportation program to help local governments and other agencies to match aid under the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act.
