| Wiregrass Transit is proud to announce the addition of our new vans, with the majority already on the road and serving the community. These vans are designed to comfortably accommodate up to 6 passengers, including those with accessibility needs. In addition to our vans, we also have larger buses for up to 18 riders and smaller buses for up to 12 riders, which have been instrumental in ensuring the safe transportation of school children to and from their educational programs this academic year. Our transportation services cover a wide area including Houston County, City of Dothan, Dale County, and the City of Enterprise. While our current service is limited to specific regions, individuals outside our service area can still utilize our services by arranging pick-ups and drop-offs within our designated service boundaries. To make use of our transportation program, remember to call at least one day in advance, as seats are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to availability of seats and vehicles. Wiregrass Transit Authority in Dothan can be reached at (334) 836-5555. Our Enterprise Office can be reached at (334) 417-1217. |
