Monroe Transit is the operator of public transportation in metropolitan Monroe, Louisiana. The agency traces its origins to the 1906 creation of the Monroe Municipal Street Railways, which operated streetcar lines. In the 1930s, the organization began phasing out rail equipment, and since 1938, the city has operated buses. Twelve standard routes are operated, plus one downtown shuttle using replica trolleys; the agency provides service at 45 minute intervals. In 2005, night service was also instituted and hours for regular routes were extended.
