Provides rides for any purpose, to all people, and no membership is required.
The Rural Transportation Service is a convenient public transit program catering to individuals in the area surrounding Montpelier. With the goal of providing accessible transportation, this service offers one-way rides within an eight-mile radius of Montpelier for a flat fee of $2.00, which is suggested as a donation for individuals aged 60 and above. For destinations outside this radius but within Bear Lake County, the service is available for a slightly higher fee of $8.00 for older adults.
Individuals requiring transportation beyond Bear Lake County can also benefit from this program by availing themselves of individual trips, which are priced at $4.00 plus an additional $1.00 per mile. The program operates via buses or trains, providing shared rides to optimize efficiency. Riders are encouraged to schedule their trips in advance - at least a few days ahead - and should be prepared to make payments in cash for the service.
Notably, the Rural Transportation Service offers curb-to-curb transportation, ensuring that older adults can easily access the transportation they need to navigate their daily lives effectively. For those seeking more information on services extending beyond Bear Lake County, contacting PRT directly is recommended to explore available options.
