Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the difference between High Valley Transit and Park City Transit?

A: Until 2021, Park City Transit (PCT) serviced Park City in addition to other Summit County neighborhoods. When Park City and Summit County recognized the growing need for transit service to extend further throughout the county, High Valley Transit (HVT) was created. HVT is focused on providing regional service between areas in Summit, Wasatch and Salt Lake counties and select destinations in Park City, while PCT continues to provide a full local service within Park City. The two entities are separated, but continue to work together to serve their communities.

Q2: How do the two separate transit systems (PCT and HVT) operate?

A: Park City Transit continues to operate as a department of Park City Municipal Corporation. Park City Transit operators and staff are employees of Park City Municipal. High Valley Transit is an independent transit district created by the government of Summit County, Utah. As an independent agency, it is overseen by a board of trustees. For more information about High Valley Transit, please visit their website.  

Q3: What happened to ADA/Paratransit service?

Existing ADA/Paratransit riders continue to have access to this service. As of July 2021, Valley Ride operated by High Valley Transit, provides ADA complementary Paratransit service, depending on where the ride ends or begins. 

If your trip starts in Park City Municipal’s boundaries and ends in Summit County outside of these boundaries, Park City Transit is responsible for that trip. For the return trip, you should contact Valley Ride, and they will take you back to Park City. If you need a round trip within Park City, Park City Mobility can schedule and provide the trip. If you need a round trip within Summit County, outside of the city, Valley Ride can schedule and provide the trip. 

All Park City Mobility riders will be automatically eligible for Valley Ride services. For more information on how to enroll you can visit the High Valley website.
