Public Transit
The Kingsport Area Transit Service has a wide variety of vehicles to help you get where you want to go. All of the KATS vehicles are clean, safe and well-maintained for your comfort and safety. Our experienced drivers are always courteous and want to make sure that you arrive to your destination safe and on time.
Our vehicles are equipped with air-conditioning, wheelchair lifts for ADA Paratransit patrons, emergency exits and high back seats to provide a more pleasant ride. Additionally, all vehicles are designated as non-smoking.
The new KATS Transit Center has been designed with our passengers in mind. Completely enclosed from the weather, riders can relax in the transit lobby while waiting to transfer to another bus.
For schedule and route information, call KATS at 423-224-2613. Information services are open Monday – Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
