Athens-Clarke County is home to two bus systems, ACC Athens Transit and UGA Campus Transit. Athens Transit does a great job of serving our county under tight budget constraints while Campus Transit serves students, faculty, and staff of the University of Georgia.

BikeAthens is currently working for more funding for transit through our Transit Issues Committee. Please visit Take Action and explore the following links for more transit information.
