With the exception of CTran Elmira (which runs daily), all systems operate Monday through Saturday
Services
[edit]CTran operates as a regional public transportation provider for the citizens and visitors of the City of Elmira, New York and its surrounding area. Previously known as the Chemung County Transportation System (CCTS), Chemung County adopted the name change to CTran in 2012. Most of the CTran routes operate once hourly throughout the day on weekdays, with limited service on Saturdays and Sundays. Operation of the system is managed by contract with First Transit, Inc., the same agency that also operates the Corning-Erwin Area Transit System (CEATS) and the Steuben County Transit System.
The majority of routes connect at a transfer center located on Railroad Avenue in Elmira.[1]
