The Wilmington Transit System began operations as The Wilmington City Cab Service in August, 1984, with two vehicles, and five part-time employees. We presently have twenty one vehicles, six full-time and fifty part-time employees. We have eight wheelchair accessible vehicles, and we receive more than 11,000 calls a year for wheelchair assistance.
We provide an average of 125,000 rides a year. We deliver passengers to places of shopping, work, healthcare, school, babysitters, daycare, etc. We are a demand responsive, door-to-door service; which means when a passenger calls, we send a vehicle, and if assistance is required, we will help them from their door to the door of their destination. Passengers may also make “time calls”, which is to set up a time that they need to be picked up at a later date and time.
