Last year, RCT gave 181,273 rides to residents of over 61 towns across Northern Vermont.

We provide non emergency medical transportation for those without their own transportation, rides for older adults and persons with disabilities, recovery, social and job opportunities, and an alternative form of transportation for those that choose to leave their car at home.

We work hard to provide these rides fare free to the rider because accessible and reliable public transportation is essential for healthy communities.

Today is Please help us continue to provide fare free transportation for our communities.

Beginning Jan 1, 2026 RCT will assume responsibility for fixed-route bus and demand response public transportation services in Franklin and Grand Isle counties. For more info click here.
