HART was created in 1957 as a publicly owned mass transit system, of which all citizens who live in the City of Henderson are part owners.

In keeping with our policy to provide the citizens of Henderson with the best possible service within current budgetary constraints, HART has continued to make improvements in equipment and facilities. The HART transfer point located at Third and Main allows passengers to transfer buses conveniently. HART has introduced new accessible vehicles that meet the Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. HART will continue to replace the fleet with accessible vehicles as the current fleet exceeds its useful life.

Reasonable Accommodations

Paratransit is a curb-to-curb service. Drivers cannot provide assistance beyond the curb, as the driver cannot leave the bus or other riders unattended due to safety and security concerns. However, HART will honor reasonable accommodations on request. All requests should be made in advance by filling out and submitting a Reasonable Accommodations Request (English | Español) form to HART.
