Unlocking Access

A Brief History

WTC has operated a county-wide transportation system for people unable to use public transportation since 1963, when we purchased our first Ford Econoline van. Instantly, we recognized how vital transportation is for everyone to enjoy inclusive access to the community. Today, WTC vehicles cover almost 2,100 miles daily on their routes across the county. They are equipped with lifts, specially trained drivers, and other accessibility options required for the continued success of our clients.
