The Office of Transit Services (Harris County Transit) provides transportation options for residents living outside the METRO service area. In partnership with regional agencies, the program advances equitable, efficient, and reliable transportation solutions that enhance mobility, support economic opportunity, reduce congestion, and improve air quality.
The Transit Services Division also collaborates with the Office of Emergency Management to operate the County Staging Area and coordinate evacuation transportation during County-declared emergencies
The Harris County Commissioners Court has authorized the Housing & Community Development (HCD) Department to administer all non-infrastructure transit funding received from the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Transit programs are supported through a combination of federal funding and required local funding commitments.
