How to apply for Concho Valley Transit District (CVTD) — Senior Reduced Fare + Rural FREE Demand-Response (Concho County) in Texas

Who it's for

Concho Valley Transit District (CVTD) is the regional transit operator serving 13 counties of central and western Texas including Concho. CVTD's senior fare structure is DISTINCTIVE: reduced fares are available for seniors AGE 65+, students, military, persons with disabilities, and Medicare card holders. EVEN BETTER for rural counties — rural clients (in Concho and 12 other CVTD counties, EXCLUDING Brady On-Demand) ride at NO COST. CVTD's 5310-grant Elderly & Disabled program gives free curb-to-curb rides to people 65+ and people with disabilities when grant funding is available — CVTD says the program is temporary and not always available, so call 325-947-8729 to ask. Riders 60 and over can also get Area Agency on Aging trips within the service area (325-223-5704, toll-free 1-877-944-9666). CVTD operates fixed-route bus service within San Angelo (Tom Green County), demand-response across the rural counties, and ADA paratransit for eligible riders. Apply for senior reduced fare ID or paratransit eligibility at the CVTD office (510 N. Chadbourne, San Angelo TX 76903) or call CVTD Customer Service. Concho residents typically use demand-response for medical trips to San Angelo (Shannon Medical Center) or local errands.
