How to apply for Public & Dial-a-Ride Transit (County Express (NECALG)) — Yuma
County Express (NECALG)
Who it's for
County Express, run by the Northeastern Colorado Association of Local Governments, gives curb-to-curb rides to the general public in northeastern Colorado, including Yuma County — older adults, people with disabilities, and Medicaid trips. Seniors pay a reduced rate, and the Area Agency on Aging may help with fares for medical trips. Call the Yuma County dispatcher at 970-848-0300 before 5 pm, at least 24 hours ahead for local rides and 72 hours ahead for out-of-town rides.
Service areas, hours, and fares are set by the transit provider; call ahead to schedule and ask about senior or disability fares.
People who qualify for one senior program often qualify for others. See everything you may qualify for — free, no SSN, about five minutes.
