Transit agencies are asking riders to cover their face while on the vehicle. That includes Freedom transit here in Washington County and Allegheny County Port Authority. “The state’s order clearly means riders should wear face coverings while on transit vehicles,” said Port Authority CEO Katharine Kelleman. “We want to do our part to uphold this statewide order and protect both our customers and employees.” Children ages two or under will also not be required to wear masks. Officials said the change will help keep both passengers and employees safe. (PHOTO: Freedom Transit Twitter)
