History
Public transit in the Clinton area began in the form of horse cars starting in 1869, operated by the Lyons Horse Railway Co. Between 1891 and 1896, the horse cars were replaced by electric streetcars, which in turn were replaced with buses in 1937.[2]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Clinton MTA reduced service hours for a time beginning March 30, 2020, to ensure safety of riders and operators.[3] Unusual for such a small system, the MTA offers a live bus map for riders.[4]
