Who it's for
Washington Parish Public Transit, run by the Washington Parish Council on Aging, serves the whole parish Monday to Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., with accessible vehicles. Book two days ahead; same-day rides depend on space. Riders under 60 pay $6.00 in town or $8.00 out of town one way. Seniors ride through a federal grant and are asked for a contribution. Call (985) 732-6869.
Service areas, hours, and fares are set by the transit provider; call ahead to schedule and ask about senior or disability fares.
