Worcester Regional Transit Authority

The Worcester Regional Transit Authority (WRTA) is a public, non-profit organization charged with providing public transportation to the city of Worcester, Massachusetts and the surrounding towns. The WRTA was created in September 1974 under Chapter 161B of the Massachusetts General Laws. This act also created several other regional transit authorities in Massachusetts, including the Greater Attleboro-Taunton Regional Transit Authority and the Pioneer Valley Transit Authority among others.

The WRTA currently provides fixed-route bus service to Auburn, Boylston, Brookfield, Clinton, East Brookfield, Holden, Leicester, Millbury, Oxford, Shrewsbury, Spencer, Webster, West Boylston and Worcester. The WRTA also provides paratransit service to a total of 37 communities in Central Massachusetts.
