Mississippi County Transit System, Inc.
Who it's for
Mississippi County Transit System, Inc. serves Mississippi County with Demand-response public transit for county residents (elderly, disabled, and general public), wheelchair-accessible; 274 S. Clay Morgan Drive, East Prairie. The agency has no website of its own, so the MoDOT-supported MO Rides directory listing is cited. Mississippi County is not in the SMTS service area.. Older adults and people with disabilities can use these services for medical appointments, shopping, and other essential trips. Rides are free or low-cost depending on the service. Call 1-573-649-3166 for schedules, eligibility, or to book a ride.
Service areas, reduced-fare eligibility, and ride availability are set by the transit provider, so this shows as a may-qualify result.
What you'll need
- Proof of Mississippi County residency
- Proof of age 65+ or disability for reduced fare
