Heart of Texas Rural Transit

  • Transportation service is classified as “origin-to-destination” meaning the vehicle stops at the passenger’s address.
  • Rural transportation services are provided within or between five counties -  Bosque, Falls, Freestone, Hill, and Limestone counties.   McLennan County is  not in the HOTRTD service area and is not served by the HOTRTD.  Trips to, from, or within McLennan County are served exclusively by the McLennan County Transit District which can be reached at 254-750-1620 to make reservations .
  • To schedule or change a HOTRTD trip reservation  originating from within the service area  the caller should call the following telephone number:
    • Originating from Bosque, Falls, or Hill counties – call   254-292-1873
    • Originating from Freestone or Limestone counties – call   254-729-2625   

If you need assistance getting transportation to resources or services in your county, contact the CREW@mclennan.edu.
