About Baldwin Regional Area Transit System

Baldwin Regional Area Transit System, “BRATS,” is a department of the Baldwin County Commission. BRATS offers safe, affordable and reliable transportation to help enhance lives, promote a strong economy, protect our environment by reducing traffic congestion and conserve energy. Our transit operation consists of a fleet of over 40 ADA accessible buses. BRATS provides transportation throughout Baldwin County at a minimum mileage-based cost. Funding for BRATS is provided by the fares collected, the Baldwin County Commission and grants from the Federal Transit Administration. To schedule non-emergency transportation with BRATS, please call (251) 972 6817 or download the convenient mobile app, “BRATS On Demand.” Transportation plays a vital role in emergency response in Baldwin County, and BRATS is an active partner with the Baldwin County Emergency Management Agency. Our partnership supports the needs of our community by assisting with mass transit evacuations resulting from natural disasters, fires, vehicle accidents, chemical spills, etc. This alliance and properly executed emergency plans aid in lowering the significant risk of loss of life among those dependent on mass transit for evacuation to escape harm’s way. Public transit provides many with increased independence and provides greater access to our community. We believe in “Connecting Communities,” so if you have a transportation need, please contact BRATS today!
