Who are we?
     The Wiregrass Transit Authority is a public non-profit organization providing essential transportation services as well as tailored transportation to the general public in Dothan and Houston County.
     We currently provide a fleet of 20 vehicles and provide a range of capabilities to transport any size group and to accommodate the handicapped. Seventeen of our vehicles are equipped with wheel chair lifts and stations.
     As well as providing transportation services to the general public, we also provide contract transportation to social service agencies within the community and non-emergency medical transportation.
     The Wiregass Transit Authority is an active and vital part of the growing community of the Wiregrass region and is prepared to expand transportation services as the need is identified and defined. We are totally dedicated to improving the quality of life for all our citizens.

Who do we offer?
     We offer a wide range of personalized transportation services within Dothan and Houston County.
     The Dial-a-Ride is the most visible portion of our transportation system and one of the most-used by the general public. There are some basic rules for the program:

      You must call at least one day in advance.
      First come, first serve.
      Service is dependent on the availability of seats and vehicles.

     We also offer long term scheduling to support such activities as Ride-to-Work, dialysis, and recurring medical appointments. If you have transportation need, call us and we will work with you to best fulfill that need.
        We offer coupon books that will allow you to purchase transportation vouchers that are redeemable for all your transportation needs. These can be purchased directly from the driver on any transit vehicle.

      $2 inside the city limits of Dothan.
      $5 from Webb, Ashford, and Cottonwood.
