Transportation Management Association of Chester County

The TMACC has announced new fares that will go into effect on Feb. 5 for two of its public “ChescoBus” transportation routes: SCCOOT and Coatesville Link.

For SCCOOT, the “zones” have been restructured, resulting in reduced fares, enabling riders to make more affordable short and long trips. TMACC is also adding on-demand stops to SCCOOT, which will allow residents of Kennett Square Borough to have easier access to public transportation.

The Coatesville Link bus will have a new fare that will continue to be in line with the Krapf “A” Bus.
