The Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky (TANK) is the public transit system serving the Northern Kentucky suburbs of Cincinnati, Ohio, located in Kenton County, Boone County and Campbell County, United States. In 2024, the system had a ridership of 2,132,500, or about 6,500 per weekday as of the first quarter of 2025.
Currently TANK operates a fleet of 100 fixed route buses and 25 demand response vehicles.
While TANK's primary service area is the three Northern Kentucky counties, all TANK routes also connect with Downtown Cincinnati where riders can transfer to vehicles operated by the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority if necessary. Although the two systems are separate, the TANK and SORTA work to make transfers between systems easy, and even sell a joint pass.
A bus redesign took effect on January 31, 2021.
