Funding is provided under a partnership between the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary, Regional District of Central Kootenay and BC Transit. handyDART provides door-to-door transportation for people whose disability prevents them from using conventional bus service.

West Kootenay Transit System introduced a transit run between the Cities of Trail, Castlegar and Nelson, mainly to serve those travelling to Selkirk College's Castlegar Campus. This run is operational between the months of September and June and can be used for general transportation between the communities of Trail, Castlegar and Nelson.
