How to apply for Albany Transit System (Senior & ADA Fares) — Dougherty County

Albany Transit System — City of Albany

Who it's for

The Albany Transit System runs fixed-route buses plus ADA paratransit across Dougherty County (Albany). Seniors 65 and older and people with a qualifying disability ride for a reduced (half) fare with proper ID or a Medicare card; ADA paratransit serves riders whose disability prevents them from using fixed routes and requires an application. Call the City of Albany Transit office for routes, the reduced-fare card, and paratransit eligibility.

Reduced fixed-route fares are available to seniors and people with a qualifying disability; ADA paratransit eligibility is determined by application, so this shows as a may-qualify result.

What you'll need

  • Proof of Dougherty County residency
  • Proof of age 65+ or a Medicare card / disability ID for the reduced fare
  • Completed ADA paratransit application (for door-to-door service)
