Service begins at 6:00 am Monday, January 23^rd.

Microtransit is an Uber-like system of real-time hailed, dynamically routed, public transit service open to all members of the public with service provided by a small bus or van. Riders will request a ride via an app, online, or by calling SEVT. Rides will be delivered in a lift-equipped van within the Town of Windsor boundaries.

Windsor is one of only five Vermont towns that has been funded for this two-year pilot program. Other towns include Barre, Manchester, Middlebury, and Morrisville.
