Senior-center vans are also available through the Area Agency on Aging and Disability. Call 423-949-2191 to schedule a ride.
SETHRA rural transit is open to the public and demand-response, so rides must be booked ahead. Reduced-fare eligibility for seniors is modeled at age 65 (the common threshold); confirm the current senior fare and age with SETHRA at 423-949-2191.
