LANTA operates the Metro system, a network of 26 bus routes throughout the Lehigh Valley providing daily, later evening and Saturday services. More than 380,000 people live within easy walking distance of a Metro route. There has been a 75% increase in ridership since LANTA's inception: currently nearly 4 million rides are taken on public transit in the Valley each year. Metro's 80 vehicle bus fleet has been continually updated so that passengers may ride to work, school, shopping and medical services in safety and comfort. Transit fares have been maintained at reasonable levels, with deeply discounted tickets and passes available to all riders.

The Metro system is concentrated in the urbanized areas of the Cities of Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton and links to surrounding boroughs and townships. A series of "Shuttle" routes provide services in areas at the edge of the urbanization area and a "Starlight" set of routes offer services after 6:30 p.m. up until around 11 p.m. Monday through Saturday. On October 21, 2001, LANTA introduced a Sunday schedule of service focused on the cities of Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton and neighboring Whitehall.
