Public Transportation OptionsThe Pony Express provides a deviated fixed route curb to curb trolley service. The deviated fixed route is the service that operates along a fixed alignment, but may deviate from the route alignment to collect or drop off passengers who have requested the deviation. Riders are requested to board the trolley preferably along one of our designated trolley stops. Our trolleys are equipped with wheelchair lifts.

The operator complies with all ADA rules and regulations. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) trips will be arranged where logistically possible on public roads within a 3/4 mile range and qualify for ADA services. To qualify for the ADA deviation option, you must apply and be certified. Applications are available at the Town of Chincoteague, Inc. office in person or by mail. Certification from other communities will be accepted.

We ask that your request for service, after certification, be made at least 2 hours in advance of your desired departure time. The fare for ADA deviated route riders is 50 cents (or 2 tokens). The Town office is open 8 AM to 5 PM. After normal business hours, please contact the Pony Express.
