About Martin County Public Transit
Martin County's Public Transit Service (MARTY) offers fixed route, deviated fixed route and commuter bus service, as well as, ADA complementary paratransit service. Our ADA complementary paratransit service (Marty Access) is a shared-ride, door-to-door service. The ADA complementary paratransit service is an eligibility-based program and is in compliance under the provisions of the American’s with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990.
Martin County's Public Transit Service is committed to ensuring that no person is discriminated against on the basis of race, color or national origin. All Martin County buses are equipped with wheelchair lifts and bike racks.

Veterans
MARTY now provides door to bus stop and reverse commute services for veterans going to the Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) in West Palm Beach.
To participate, each veteran will need to complete the MARTY Access for Veterans Application, as well as provide proof of residency and one of the six authorized, government-issued Veterans IDs.
Participating veterans will be picked up from their home and taken to the closest 20X bus stop (either the Morgade Library or Hobe Sound and Bridge Road) to board the bus to the VAMC. Upon return from the VAMC, the veteran will be taken to the same bus stop and then returned home. Note: As an alternative, veterans can use the park and ride directly across from the Morgade Library at no cost.
