I don’t plan to own a car and need to get to work and grocery stores.
What public transportation options exist in Wilkes‑Barre?
1 Answer
Wilkes‑Barre is served by a regional transit authority that operates fixed‑route bus services throughout the city and surrounding townships. Routes typically connect residential areas with major employment centers, shopping districts, and the downtown core. The agency also offers paratransit services for riders with disabilities and a limited on‑demand shuttle program in some neighborhoods. Schedules, route maps, and fare information are posted on the transit authority’s website, and you can download a mobile app for real‑time bus tracking. For longer trips, intercity bus carriers have terminals nearby, providing connections to larger cities in Pennsylvania and beyond.
