When there was a massive increase in populus ASAP following Hurricane Katrina, RTA buses from New Orleans were brought into Baton Rouge to supplement CATS. The LA Swift is a bus service that runs from Baton Rouge to New Orleans which was created after Hurricane Katrina at a time when Baton Rouge had a large number of displaced residents and it helped displaced residents return to New Orleans to gut their homes, get jobs, leisure, live for good, etc.

Public transit is provided by the Capitol Area Transit System. The public transportation system is highly criticized as low performing and not averaging enough riders to continue to be successful in the Baton Rouge area. Area leaders recently took part in an all day ride of the Baton Rouge buses to determine what the problem was and many say the problem is hour long waits for the buses, CATS management say that there are not enough riders to put more buses on the line and won`t receive any funding until more people start riding the bus consistently.
