How to apply for Hoke Area Transit Service

Hoke Area Transit Service (HATS), Hoke County

Who it's for

Hoke Area Transit Service (HATS) is the county-operated, door-to-door public transportation system for Hoke County (Raeford), serving residents for whom getting around is difficult. Vehicles are accessible for riders with disabilities. Reservations must be made at least 48 hours ahead; call HATS at 910-875-8696, or seniors can call Hoke County Senior Services at 910-875-8588 about medical transportation.

This is a demand-response community transportation service reserved in advance (at least 48 hours ahead); trip availability and any senior or disability fare reduction depend on capacity and grant funding, so this shows as a may-qualify result.

What you'll need

  • Proof of Hoke County residency
  • Advance ride reservation (typically at least one business day ahead)
