CART’s mission is to provide a low-cost public transportation system that serves all of Carbon County and benefits the health, economic, and social well-being of anyone with transportation challenges—especially the elderly, the disabled, and the isolated—living in our rural communities.
“The program, called Carbon County Area Ride and Transit (CART), has existed for three years, and gives Carbon County residents rides for medical appointments, grocery shopping, and other stops. Typically, these rides are from their homes in Carbon County with destinations as far away as Billings.”
We are dedicated to keeping CART affordable, even at NO CHARGE for our passengers. Any funds we receive from the Fun Run will be used to offset the costs of operating the service and keeping it affordable to everyone who needs help with transportation.
CART is an important service for anyone who uses it to get where they need to go—in Carbon County or in Billings. Whether to the doctor or vet, grocery or food bank, Roberts or Bridger, senior center, post office, or lunch with a friend—our riders greatly benefit from CART.
Last year, funds raised through the Fun Run helped us keep gas in the vehicles and vans on the road in service to the people of Carbon County who need public transportation, whether they are 7 or 70!
