Our services operate Monday through Friday, from 6:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (excluding major holidays) for our bus routes, and 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for Dial- a-Ride.  We strive to offer dependable and timely transportation to help you reach your destination safely and efficiently.

Transportation Services

  • Dial-a-Ride Service: This flexible service is available for those who require a more personalized transportation option. Ideal for individuals with mobility challenges or specific travel needs, Dial-a-Ride allows you to schedule a pick-up and drop-off at locations within our service area. 
  • Fixed-Route with Deviation Bus Service: We offer two Fixed-Route bus lines that cover essential destinations throughout Miami, Globe, and surrounding areas. These routes are perfect for daily commuters, students, and anyone traveling locally. A passenger can request a deviation within ¾ of a mile from the nearest bus stop for $1. 

Deviation Services 

If you are within ¾ of a mile from a bus stop on our route, Copper Mountain Transit will deviate from the route to pick up or drop off a passenger, as the schedule allows and if it is safe to do so.  You must call 928 473 8222 by 5pm the day before to schedule a deviation.  There is an additional charge of $1 for the deviation. Any place other than an established bus stop is considered a deviation.
