What this benefit is

Any veteran rides RTC transit across the Las Vegas valley at the reduced fare with an RTC-issued Veterans ID card — a DD-214, VA ID or military retiree card is the proof, with no disability rating involved.

What it's worth: Reduced fare on RTC transit with the Veterans ID card — roughly half the standard fare

  • Estimated for a monthly-pass rider at the reduced rate against the full 30-day pass; the RTC's own guidance frames the reduced tier as a 50% saving.

Who is entitled to it

  • You are a veteran or serving member.
  • You are in Clark County, where the RTC operates.
  • RTC transit serves your area.

Not sure whether that describes you?

Answer a few questions about this benefit specifically — we only ask what this one actually depends on, and we stop as soon as we know.

How to claim it

  1. 1Apply in person at the Bonneville Transit Center or the RTC customer care window — or online through a rideRTC account, which the new reloadable tap cards require.
  2. 2Bring one veteran proof — a VA Veterans ID card, DD-214 papers, or a military retiree ID — plus a state-issued ID.
  3. 3Board by showing the RTC-issued ID, paying the reduced fare, and tapping the card on the validator; app users just scan the phone.

Worth knowingTwo companion services matter to patients of the North Las Vegas VA Medical Center: the Veterans Medical Transportation Network offers free rides to medical appointments, and the DVX express route links the Bonneville Transit Center to the medical center directly.

Sources

Why only one source type: The commission's own reduced-fare page states the veteran category, the document list and the boarding mechanics; the fare table rides on the same page's pass pricing.
