Macon County Transit – Service Update

Improving Access to Transportation for Everyone

Macon County Transit is making a temporary change to how we schedule rides. This change is designed to help us serve more people and keep appointments available longer during the booking period.

What’s Changing?

For now, we are not adding any NEW standing order (recurring) trips.
• If you already have a standing order, nothing changes for you
• You can still call and schedule trips as usual
• We’re working to keep more appointment times open for all riders

Why Are We Doing This?

We’ve seen an increase in last-minute cancellations and unused trips. When trips are booked far in advance and then canceled late, it prevents others from being able to schedule rides.

This adjustment will help us
• Keep ride availability open longer
• Serve more riders each week
• Make scheduling more fair for everyone

What If I Need Regular Trips for Medical Care?

If you need transportation for ongoing medical treatments (like dialysis or similar essential care), please let us know, we will work with you.

How You Can Help
• Please schedule trips as early as possible
• Let us know as soon as you need to cancel
• Be ready at your scheduled pickup time

Our goal is simple, To provide reliable transportation to as many people as possible.

If you have questions or need to schedule a ride, please call us at: 828-349-2222

Thank you for riding with Macon County Transit.
