The North~South route provides service from Pleasant Township to the Warren Mall. The bus fare is just $.75! Senior citizens, age 65+, ride free. Discount TAWC tickets are also available. Children 6 to 12 years - $ .40. Children under 6 ride for free with an escort. Children to or from Warren County High Schools or to or from the Warren C.A.R. Pool or Brokenstraw Valley Pool - $ .25.

 

This door-to-door service system is a service that will pick you up at your door and return you to your door at the end of your trip, in accordance with daily schedules. This service is available to residents throughout Warren County.

You must call our office at least one working day in advance before 3:00 pm to reserve your seat. Trip reservations can be made one week in advance, two weeks for medical appointments.

The bus will take you to senior centers, medical appointments, visiting, shopping or just for a day out.

TAWC buses are available to the handicapped. The buses are lift-equipped for passengers in wheelchairs or who have difficulty with steps. If you need to use this feature please tell the dispatcher at the time you reserve your ride.

The Americans With Disabilities Act requires public transit agencies to provide accessible bus service to persons with disabilities.

Complimentary Paratransit service provides a bus with a wheelchair lift that goes directly to your home and takes you where you want to go, within a specified area. This service is provided ONLY if you have a disability that prevents you from using a Fixed-Route accessible bus. If you need an escort for assistance, your escort rides free. The bus fair for this service is $ 1.50.

The PwD program is available for qualified persons living outside the fixed-route system with a disability defined by the Americans with Disabilities Act. To better serve people with disabilities living in rural areas TAWC is providing discounted shared-ride services for eligible residents in all of Warren County.

This special program provides medical transportation services to eligible persons in need. Transportation is provided by TAWC for persons with an eligible ACCESS card and upon verification of need. This service will be provided directly or through mileage reimbursement. The PA Department of Public Welfare determines eligible persons.
