Greene County Transportation was established by the Board of County Commissioners on July 1, 1999 to provide transportation for the human service agencies of Greene County and to the general public. The creation of this department was made possible through an agreement between the County of Greene and the North Carolina Department of Transportation, Public Transportation Division.
Through this agreement, Federal and State funds are provided annually to the County to offset local administrative and capital operating costs. The County Transportation Department provides a "dial-a-ride" type service to all residents of Greene County when there is space and funding available.
The Greene County Transportation System offers service to medical appointments in Greenville, Farmville and Kinston Monday through Thursday. Out of County medical appointments should be scheduled between the hours of 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM. Service to Lenoir Community College in Kinston is available daily with a van arriving at the Campus at 7:45 AM with departure at 2:00 PM. Service to and from most destinations in Greene County are available daily.
The Transportation Department's office hours are 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Monday - Friday.
Passengers must call for reservations a minimum of 48 hours prior to requested pick up time (two workdays). All passengers are encouraged to schedule their appointments to ride as soon as they receive a medical appointment or have a need for transportation.
