Seniors & Disability Transportation
The Saugeen Mobility & Regional Transit Corporation is funded by several municipalities and overseen by the Ministry of Transportation whose funds are used for Capital Expenditures.
S.M.A.R.T. primarily services seniors and people with disabilities, many on fixed income at or below the poverty line. The need for medication transport and social outings to this ever growing demographic prompted the creation of this service some 30 years ago.
Brockton, West Grey, Hanover and Arran Elderslie formed the new Corporation last year. Already they have grown to include the Municipality of Kincardine and are presently in discussion with several other interested parties.
The Board is made up of Mayors of the joint Municipalities.
