Serving the Students of Chatham County

Savannah’s growing student population and their families rely on CAT to get to classes, work, activities and other destinations throughout Savannah and Chatham County. That’s why we offer a Half-Fare program for youth (ages 6 – 18) on one-way trips, day passes and monthly passes. ID is required, so apply today!

Many students also use our Bike & Ride program and are showing established Chatham County residents that you don’t need a car to move efficiently and inexpensively around the county!

Read below for more details on how CAT serves and supports Chatham County’s youth.

K-12

For our parents and younger students, CAT provides fixed-route service near numerous public and private schools throughout the county. Simply type your school’s address into the Google Trip Planner tool in the banner above (click the green “Plan Your Trip” button) to get your individual route information.

Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (SCCPSS) families can click on the SCCPSS logo for a list of each school and the routes that serve them.

Plans for additional student initiatives are also in the works, so check back here or email us about what you’d like to see.

University Service

For colleges and universities, CAT offers the U-Pass Program and a Semester Pass Program. Universal Pass, or U-Pass, allows all students of a participating institution to ride CAT buses anywhere at any time. Interested in learning more?
