Catoosa Trans-Aid bus

Catoosa County Trans-Aid received a $59,683 grant from a new Georgia Department of Transportation program funded by taxing uber, limousine and taxi rides at 25 cents each.

 Catoosa County

Catoosa County is possibly the only county in the state that has a transit service that does not charge for rides, Jason Warren, Trans-Aid director, told the Catoosa County Board of Commissioners at its May 16 meeting.

Warren said Walker County charges $4 per direction, or $8 per round trip, quite a lot for people living on Social Security or other limited forms of income.
