Overview
High Valley Transit is an independent public transit district serving Utah's Wasatch Back with fare-free transportation. Its fixed-route buses connect communities in Summit and Wasatch counties with destinations in Park City and Salt Lake County. An on-demand Micro service groups passengers in vans within defined zones, while Valley Ride provides accessible transportation for eligible riders with disabilities. Riders use a trip-planning app or telephone booking, and transit taxes, public grants and county contributions support operations and capital projects. Established in January 2021, the district lists Snyderville, Utah, as its headquarters and maintains its current administrative office at a Park City postal address.
