Walton County Board of Commissioners to be accepting bids for new Transportation Program

The Walton County Board of Commissioners have given the "go ahead" to start accepting bids for a new East to West Public Transportation program coming soon!

This new pilot program will begin with six vehicles running on two routes, one from Miramar Beach to the regional beach access at the county line and the other coming from Hwy 283 Grayton parking lot to Eastern Lake Road.

Anyone who has visited this area knows how backed up traffic can get and these are two of the most congested areas  during the Summer.

Scheduled to begin in June and July, hours of operation would be from Sunday to Thursday, 9:00 am - 10:00 pm and Friday and Saturday from 9:00 am to Midnight.

After operating for awhile, assessments will be made about whether it's successful or not, any improvements that may be made, so for now, it's a temporary program.

More information as this transportation program moves forward will follow.
