More folks in Baldwin County are now using public transportation thanks to a new business model for BRATS. The Baldwin Regional Area Transit System is now an on-demand service. Schedule a ride through its App and a bus will pick you up at your door.
Baldwin County stretches more than 2,000 square miles, and still largely rural. These two factors make running a public transportation service challenging. Until recently, BRATS customers had limited service and only on certain days of the week. That changed in September of 2020 when the system launched the BRATS On-Demand App. Over the last year, usage has surged.
