How to apply for Rowan Transit System
Rowan Transit System (Rowan County)
Who it's for
Rowan Transit System (RTS) is the public, demand-response transportation service for Rowan County (Salisbury). It provides curb-to-curb rides for medical appointments, shopping, senior centers, and essential errands, with wheelchair-accessible and ADA-compliant vehicles. The standard fare is about $2.00 per one-way trip, and riders served through grant-funded programs (including older-adult and disability transportation assistance) or Medicaid may ride at reduced or no cost. Rides are scheduled in advance; call RTS at 704-216-8899 to set up a trip.
This is a demand-response community transportation service reserved in advance; trip availability and any senior/disability fare reduction depend on capacity and grant funding, so this shows as a may-qualify result.
What you'll need
- Proof of Rowan County residency
- Advance ride reservation (typically at least one business day ahead)
