About - The Blue Bus

About Clinton Transit

Clinton Transit began in 2001 as a system of volunteer drivers transporting persons with a disability and senior members of the community. Today, our curb-to-curb system continues to keep people connected regardless of challenges, disabilities and situations. Our mission is to keep people connected by providing safe and accessible transportation for all Clinton County residents.

The “Blue Bus” is a demand response system with transportation running only when people have requested a ride. There are no bus stops or regular schedules for any routes like the larger city fixed-route bus services.
