Johnson County Transit is a public transit operator in Johnson County, Kansas. The agency operates 11 transit bus routes primarily in Johnson County, with service to Kansas City, Missouri as well as Wyandotte and Douglas counties in Kansas.

Johnson County Transit started operations in 1982 as Commuteride and began operating as The JO in 1986. The JO took over service from the Kansas City Area Transportation Authority, which provided service in Johnson County until 1981.

In November of 2014, The JO was re-branded into "RideKC" – a branding effort designed to unify all Kansas City metro area transit providers under a single fare and route structure.

In 2025, the system had a ridership of 483,400, or about 2,000 per weekday as of the fourth quarter of 2025.
