ETCOG REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT

TRANSIT

The East Texas Council of Governments (ETCOG) is the designated Rural Transit District in the East Texas 14-county region. 

Please look at the regularly scheduled trips for help with your trip.

Please download the updated Rights and Responsibilities.

ETCOG provides transportation to the rural areas of our region for any purpose including doctors appointments, work, shopping or just visiting friends and family.

To arrange for the bus to come to your house and pick you up, you need to call 24 hours in advance to arrange for a ride. Call: 1-800-590-3371

For riders over the age of 60, there is no charge to ride inside your county of residence but a suggested donation is greatly appreciated. To ride the bus into another county or further, there is a set fee schedule that the dispatcher will tell you about.

For riders under the age of 60, there is a nominal charge to ride within your county and a set fee for trips of longer distances.

East Texas Rural Transit provides this service to the citizens of our 14 county area. They operate Monday through Friday 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.  Please call to speak with one of our dispatchers to arrange for a one-time trip or a regularly scheduled ride. Call
