In 2015, Washington City Transit merged into the Washington County Transportation Authority and also became an operator of fixed-route bus service. The agency operates in the central portion of the county, which includes the county seat of Washington and a growing suburban area. The industrial Monongahela Valley portion of the county continues to be served by the Mid Mon Valley Transit Authority[3] For commuter service, Freedom Transit offers two suburban park and ride lots: along Interstate 79 in South Strabane Township, Pennsylvania and at the Southpointe development in Cecil Township.
