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
