Rock County Transit still requires you to wear a mask during transportation. Since Rock County Transit receives federal funding, we must follow the Federal Transportation Administration Guidelines. This information has been shared with signage in the buses and press releases by agencies. This requirement has been extended to March 18th, 2022. With the shortage of staffing for drivers, Rock County Transit must prioritize trips for paratransit, dialysis, and medical appointments. Trips that are not there, may be denied. We are very limited on a daily transportation trip.
