RideKC is the brand for public transportation systems in the Kansas City metropolitan area.

The RideKC brand was adopted in August 2014 by the Kansas City Streetcar Authority, operators of the KC Streetcar line then under construction in Kansas City, Missouri.[1][2] The Kansas City Area Transportation Authority adopted RideKC in November,[3] followed by Johnson County Transit, IndeBus and Unified Government Transit.

Buses using the RideKC livery rolled out in Kansas City and Johnson County in October 2015.[4][5] UG Transit transitioned in 2016, with IndeBus co-branding for the time being.[6]

As part of the consolidation, a regionwide local fare for buses took effect in January 2016.[7][8]

The RideKC website launched in October 2015 consolidating schedules, maps and other information for all participating transit agencies.[9]
