Driving, parking and local transit
South East Area Transit (SEAT) provides fixed-route service in Muskingum and Guernsey Counties. Its routes follow continual loops with the same stops, rather than offering curb-to-curb or door-to-door rides.
No reservation is required for fixed routes. Passengers should be at their stop 5 minutes before the scheduled stop time. Because routes and operating details can change, check the official site before you go.
The available local travel details give drive times to central destinations, but do not establish parking locations or rules. If you plan to drive, check parking arrangements for the specific place you are visiting rather than assuming a particular option is available.
