How to apply for Augusta Public Transit (Senior & ADA Fares) — Richmond County

Augusta-Richmond County Transit (Augusta Public Transit)

Who it's for

Augusta Public Transit operates fixed-route buses and origin-to-destination ADA paratransit van service across Richmond County (Augusta). Riders 65 and older, and people with a qualifying disability (with a Medicare card or an APT/APD ID), pay a reduced fare on fixed routes. ADA paratransit serves riders whose disability prevents them from using fixed routes; an application with a healthcare-provider section is required. Call 706-821-1719 for fixed routes or 706-821-1721 for paratransit.

Reduced fixed-route fares are available to riders 65+ and to people with a qualifying disability; ADA paratransit eligibility is determined by application and provider certification, so this shows as a may-qualify result.

What you'll need

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