Ride Rochester Transit:
Pre-tax savings on a RTS transit pass are available to employees!
PAYROLL DEDUCTION AVAILABLE FOR RTS BUS PASSES: Faculty and staff can take advantage of the ability to pay for yearly bus passes for RTS with pre-tax money through payroll deduction. By signing up for this service, employees will use tax-free money to pay for the bus passes on a monthly basis. This not only spreads the cost out over 12 months, but results in reduced taxable income, which in turn saves on taxes and increases take-home pay. Stop by the Parking office to register and pick up your bus pass. For more information call 275-4524
