Pecos Trails Transit

Pecos Trails and Handivan provides service to a 28.2 square mile area, covering all areas of the City of Roswell. The service consist of five fixed routes and a four van on demand response. These routes operate in a circular configuration with buses traveling in opposite directions, one gong clockwise and the other counter clockwise. This allows us to cover a much larger area of the City and serve a greater number of people. This configuration has allowed us to cross Main Street in four places and provides an opportunity for passengers to transfer to a Main Street bus without having to come to the station.

In 1996 Pecos Trails Transit and Handivan made 182,178 passenger trips of which approximately 25% were person with disabilities, 15% were elderly and 60% were full fare passengers.

The system has become a sound alternative form of transportation for the citizens of Roswell. We are in the process of putting in place bus stop signs. The system now just needs some fine tuning, as in adjusting schedules and routes to better fit the customers.
