How to apply for Limited Rural Transit — Edwards County
Edwards County does NOT participate in the Concho Valley Transit District (CVTD); limited rural public transit serves the area through Middle Rio Grande COG transit and informal volunteer driver networks
Who it's for
Edwards County is OUTSIDE the Concho Valley Transit District (CVTD) — distinctive among CVCOG counties since Edwards residents are served by CVCOG AAA for senior services but NOT by CVTD for transit. Limited public transit options include the Middle Rio Grande Development Council's rural transit, volunteer driver networks coordinated through CVCOG AAA, and family/neighbor transportation. For seniors who cannot drive, Edwards's geography (Hill Country, sparse population) means most needs are met through volunteer driver networks and senior-center coordinated trips. For medical referrals, Uvalde, San Angelo, and Kerrville are the typical destinations. Apply for senior volunteer driver service through CVCOG AAA at 325-223-5704 or 1-877-944-9666.
Edwards is distinctive — outside CVTD service area. Volunteer driver networks via CVCOG AAA are the practical senior transportation option.
What you'll need
- Proof of age 60+
- Proof of Edwards County residency
- For volunteer driver service: enrollment with CVCOG AAA
