Martin County Public Transit, known popularly as MARTY, is the provider of public transportation for Martin County, Florida. The system consists of five fixed bus routes, and includes connecting services with Palm Tran to the neighboring city of West Palm Beach and with the Treasure Coast Connector to Port St. Lucie.[1]
MARTY has operated since 2013. The system also operates paratransit services, as well as a veterans transportation program.[2]
In 2023, the Martin County Metropolitan Planning Organization began studying an expansion of MARTY bus service to Jensen Beach and Palm City, citing positive public feedback and increased demand for transit access in these communities.[3]
