How to apply for Vista Transit — Reduced Fare and ADA Paratransit (Cochise County)

City of Sierra Vista (Vista Transit)

Who it's for

Vista Transit runs fixed-route buses in Sierra Vista and Fort Huachuca, plus ADA paratransit for riders with a qualifying disability. Right now the whole service is fare-free — the city says both fixed-route and paratransit rides are free of charge until further notice, so you do not need to show proof of age to ride the bus. Paratransit is different: you must apply and be found eligible first. Call or text 520-417-4888 to book a paratransit trip or ask about applying. Douglas Rides serves the Douglas area separately.

Reduced fare and paratransit eligibility are set by the City of Sierra Vista and can change; a fare-free period may apply. The transit provider makes the final determination. Not legal or financial advice.
