When you’re fighting cancer, every helping hand is appreciated. During what is often a years-long process of detection, treatments and recovery, there are many times when just getting from here to there is a challenge. Now, the Texoma community can call on “The Pink Bus” to schedule curb-to-curb transportation to medical appointments or other destinations.
The Pink Bus, operated by TAPS Public Transit, symbolizes a commitment by the transit agency, the charitable organization Women Rock, and sponsoring companies to make it easier for men and women to get to their appointments for preventative and ongoing care related to breast cancer.
Anyone living in Texoma can schedule a ride within TAPS Public Transit’s six county service area by calling (800) 256-0911.
Financially challenged riders can apply for free individual trip or monthly passes online at www.TAPSbus.com/thepinkbus.
TAPS Public Transit CEO and Executive Director, Brad Underwood, said transportation can be a difficult issue when someone is fighting cancer.
“Sometimes you just need to sit back and get to your destination without the hassle of parking and walking. The Pink Bus will pick you up at your home or office and deliver you right to the curb where you need to go,” said Underwood.
TAPS Public Transit provides affordable, dependable, comfortable point-to-point transportation in Grayson, Fannin, Cooke, Montague, Clay and Wise counties, as well as daily scheduled service between Sherman and Denison, to and from DART at Plano, and to Choctaw Casino and Resort in Durant, Oklahoma.
