Drug and alcohol abuse is a growing issue in our community. Many of those who are battling addiction are not able to drive, therefore work is limited if not non-existent. My thought is a small (20-ft) bus, which will be available to everyone (locals, tourist etc). The fee would vary from time of day (for example:Monday through Friday 8am to 2pm $2.00 in town $4.0 to $6.00 outside of Madison, 2:01pm to 8:00pm $6:00 in town $7.00 to $10.00 outside of town) No trips outside of Jefferson County. and no busing after 8:00pm. This would afford for those trying to get sober to get where they need during the day into the evening for NA/AA meetings, while also bringing income into the community. The bus can have regular stops or a number to be called to request transportation, with regular trips set up on popular tourist areas.
