The Pee Dee Regional Transportation Authority is now providing a DART bus service to the City of Darlington. Let it be known that their stone gathers no moss! This service began August 16th and free rides are available through August 27th.
The residents of Darlington voiced their concerns about the lack of transit in this area and PDRTA listened. One major problem was no way for residents to get to doctor appointments or medical care.
DART will operate hourly between 7am and 5pm Monday through Friday. A one-way cash fare of $1 will also be offered.
Senior citizens age 65 and older ride for half price. Those with disabilities, Medicare card holders and children between the ages of 2 and 10 are offered the same half-price fare of $.50. There is no charge for children under age 2.
Route maps and schedules are available online at http://www.pdrta.org/. This information can also be found at the city's water department, the Greater Darlington Chamber of Commerce and Pearl Street Furniture.
