MISSION STATEMENT:

To provide affordable regional transportation assistance for the many needs of Cherokee County residents.

OVERVIEW:

The importance of transit service is rapidly growing in Cherokee County.

Cherokee County Transit provides transportation alternatives to all citizens in order to sustain a desirable quality of life.
