History

Public transit in Hot Springs began in 1874, with horsecars operated by the Hot Springs Railroad Co. By 1895, the horsecars were replaced with electric streetcars, which in turn were replaced with buses in 1938. [3] In 2021, Intracity Transit bought buses unsuitable for transit use, requiring them to be sold before ever being put into service. [4]

Intracity Transit operates 3 regular weekday bus routes on a pulse system with all routes departing Hot Springs station at 10 past the hour. Routes run on hourly headways. [5]
