GATRA

Greater Attleboro-Taunton Regional Transit Authority

The Greater Attleboro-Taunton Regional Transit Authority (GATRA) was created in 1976 to develop, finance, and contract for the operations of mass transportation facilities and services within an ever-expanding area, which includes 28 diverse communities stretching from Southern Norfolk County and Northern Bristol County, all the way to Plymouth County and the South Shore.

Over the years, GATRA has had a long-standing tradition of providing quality transportation services geared to improve the quality of life and assist customers in becoming more transportation independent.

Today, GATRA oversees operations of fixed-route bus services in the cities of Attleboro and Taunton, and the towns of Duxbury, Foxborough, Franklin, Kingston, Mansfield, Marshfield, Middleborough, Norfolk, North Attleboro, Norton, Plainville, Plymouth, Raynham, Seekonk, Wareham, and Wrentham.

All 28 member communities have demand response (Dial-A-Ride) services for people with disabilities and seniors. In 2014, GATRA launched a new tri-town bus route that serves the MCI facilities, the MBTA station in Norfolk, and Patriot Place in Foxborough.
