· Medical appointment transportation is available on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. Appointments must be scheduled between 9:00 am and 2:00 pm.

· The bus can transport you to medical appointments in Woodbury, Southbury, Middlebury and Watertown only. Other towns will be added over time.

· We cannot guarantee you a ride until you speak with us. With capacity limits and a large geographic area to cover, we will be limited in how many people we can transport each day.

· We will require a contact number we can reach while you are at the medical appointment. Also, please do not plan to run other errands when booking a medical appointment, unless you discuss this with the driver.

· Senior bus service is curb-to-curb. We cannot go into your home nor leave the bus to come into the medical building with you. 


Other Options
