Transit
Parent permission forms for children to ride the transit bus are now available. The form can be downloaded for a paper copy to give to the transit driver.
A reminder that whenever possible PLEASE call 24 hours ahead for pickup. The bus is accepting same day calls at this point in time, but if you do that it may cause a delay because of conflicts with other scheduled riders.
The transit number is 605-228-7938 and the bus runs M-F from 8:00am to 4:00pm.

Hours
Monday-Friday • 8:00a.m.-4:00 p.m.
Scheduled pick-up REQUIRES a call the day before during transit hours.
A message from the Faulk County Advisory Board:
Due to increase in gas and other transportation costs plus our responsibility for 50% of our operating costs here in Faulk County it has been necessary to increase our fee, which now is: $2.00 for the first pick up of the day and $1.00 for each subsequent boarding . Some surrounding transits have also been forced to raise their rates.
