History

Douglas Area Rural Transit was incorporated in 2001 using Nevada's DOT public rural ride program[7] as a way to bridge the transit gap in Carson Valley and Stateline.[8] At launch, the system was averaging 40 passengers per day[9]

In 2007, Gardnerville residents were protesting the transit operator for causing traffic in residential streets near the senior center[10]
