History

Public transit in Sheridan began with streetcars by 1910, with the Sheridan Railway Co. However, streetcar service only lasted until 1924. In October 2019, Goose Creek Transit began providing Sheridan with fixed-route service, in addition to the senior transportation previously offered. While fixed route services were temporarily suspended in early 2020, they resumed on June 1. The bus route began with an initial 28 stops and one bus, but has since grown to 38 stops and four buses.

Goose Creek Transit operates one bus route around Sheridan in addition to dial-a-ride service. Hours of operation for the system are Monday through Friday from 7:00 A.M. to 6:30 P.M. and from 8:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. on weekends. There is no set fare, however, a $2 donation is suggested.
