Greenlink Transit
On March 31, 2008, the City of Greenville began providing transit operations services to the
Greenville Transit Authority (GTA). Pursuant to the City’s contract with GTA, the City renamed the
service “Greenlink” and will operate fixed route and demand response bus services for GTA. GTA
remains a separate operating entity and retains ownership of all system assets. The City serves as
the day-to-day operator of the transit system under a transportation director appointed by the City
Manager. Visit
