Move Sullivan Expanding Route, Adding Fare on November 2

Move Sullivan Tickets

Monticello, NY – Move Sullivan, Sullivan County’s year-old public transportation system, is about to take the next step forward.

“Thanks to the support of this Legislature, Move Sullivan buses have continued running throughout the pandemic, and I’m pleased to announce that, starting November 2, the routes will be expanded to meet public demand,” County Manager Josh Potosek explained.

“In addition to realignments of some existing stops to better serve riders, Move Sullivan buses will now travel into Sleepy Hollow Apartments in the Village of Monticello, visit Crystal Run Healthcare in Rock Hill, run to the Liberty Market grocery store and Achieve Rehab and Nursing Facility in the Village of Liberty, swing by the Woodbourne traffic light, and stop at Green Avenue in the heart of the Village of Woodridge,” noted Community Resources Commissioner Laura Quigley, who oversees the program.

As long intended, Move Sullivan buses will also institute a $2-per-trip fare on November 2, with three-trip ticket booklets selling for $5. Tickets (available on the bus and at the Sullivan County Treasurer’s Office in the Government Center) must be purchased in cash, exact change only. Transfers between buses will be allowed at no charge, so long as riders obtain a free transfer ticket from drivers.

“My fellow legislators and I remain committed to ensuring local commuters, shoppers and students have a way to get where they’re going even if they have no vehicle of their own,” Legislature Chairman Robert A. Doherty affirmed. “This service is vital to our economy, and I’m intent on strengthening and expanding our middle-class workforce through important initiatives like this.”
