System Profile
Battle Creek Transit has provided continuous service since 1932 and operates as a city department. The service is operated from the transit terminal located on W. Michigan Avenue. The terminal houses all vehicles, maintenance, and administrative activities. The service consists of both line-haul and demand-response service. Line-haul service operates on a central hub pulse mode with service available six days a week. The demand-response service, called Tele-transit, operates primarily to accommodate handicapper people but is open to the general public. Battle Creek Transit also oversees the intermodal terminal which accommodates both intercity rail and bus travelers. Located adjacent to the transfer center, a passenger may easily transfer from intercity to local public transit.
