Yates Transit Service

A Community Riding Together.

Formed in 2017 at the request of Yates County legislators who sought to create a public transportation system for county residents, Yates Transit Service (YTS) utilizes a mixture of company-owned and state-leased vehicles to meet the needs of the community.

YTS safely transports Mozaic (a branch of the Arc New York) clientele every weekday, as well as follows a variety of specified public routes.

There are five main routes which run twice daily, covering approximately 700 miles through Geneva, Dundee, Naples, Rushville, and Dresden. YTS also offers midday runs through Penn Yan and Dundee.
