(Macon, Missouri, March 8, 2022) – OATS Transit, a Missouri based not-for-profit transportation provider, is pleased to announce the 20th anniversary of The Linc public transportation program in Lincoln County this month. The Linc first began daily service through a partnership between OATS Transit, Lincoln County, and several other local agencies in March 2002.
An official celebration is scheduled for Tuesday, March 29th at 2 p.m. at the City Hall in Troy, MO. Local officials and representatives from OATS Transit will be at the celebration. The public is encouraged to attend.
The Linc buses run Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. OATS Transit oversees the operations of this service, which is funded by the Federal Transit Administration, Lincoln County, Community Opportunities, local advertisers, and rider fares/donations.
