Powell County Transit

Welcome to our site! We offer public transportation for all ages both in town (Deer Lodge), and out of town to 4 different cities. Check out our In Town and Out of town pages to see schedules and trips.


Out of town trips are not restricted to Deer Lodge residents. Our policy states that rides can be given to anyone with an origin or destination in Powell County. Have a need and live in a smaller community in Powell County?  Give us a call!


As the weather gets cooler and snowier, , please allow extra time for the driver to get you to appointments safely. We recommend calling at least 30 minutes ahead of any appointments in town and will allow an extra 15-30 minutes of travel time for out-of-town transportation.
