The employees at the Anson County Transportation System are very proud of the service offered to the community of Anson County.  Our fleet of vehicles regularly transport individuals to doctor's appointments, nutrition sites, employment, post secondary school, shopping facilities and recreational functions.  We offer two types of transportation - Regular scheduled routes and demand response.

Regularly scheduled routes transport individuals to the same destination on a consistent basis.  Our regularly scheduled routes consist of nutritional routes for the elderly to the Peachland, Wadesboro and Morven meal sites, employment training routes to the McLaurin Vocational Rehabilitation Center in Hamlet NC, dialysis treatment, employment route to the Howell Center Clear Creek group home in Charlotte NC and also employment routes throughout Anson County.

Demand response transportation is very flexible and is accessible by calling at least 24 hours in advance to schedule appointments.  (To ensure availability of a vehicle, one might need to call earlier than 24 hours).

Our Mission
To offer clean, safe and reliable transportation to the citizens of Anson County in order to help promote a strong economy, protect our environment, conserve energy and enhance our lives.

Disabled Accessibility
We are proud of the fact that we are able to furnish reliable, reasonably priced transportation for our citizens who are wheelchair users and/or affected with other disabilities that restrict mobility.  The lifts designed for our vehicles are easy to operate and make transporting passengers and wheelchairs a very simple matter.  When scheduling a ride be sure to inform us that a lift van is required and we will be happy to send the proper vehicle to accommodate your needs.  The driver will assist with normal boarding and deboarding.  In most cases, someone is needed to ride with you at no extra charge to assist you in and out of facilities.

The transportation system accepts the following funding sources:
1.    Cash
2.    Medicaid
3.    Monthly payments by established agencies and businesses
4.    Elderly & Disabled Transportation Grant (These funds are handled by the transportation department and can be accessed by calling the transportation office at 704-694-2596)
