Putnam Area Rapid Transit (PART) is the provider of bus transit in Putnam County, New York. An agency of the Putnam County government, PART came into service in the mid-1970s as a startup system in the wake of growing suburbanization of Putnam County and rising gas prices.

Routes

PART currently operates four routes, all of which meet at various points during the day at Putnam Plaza, a strip mall in the county seat of Carmel.
*PART 1: Serves Brewster and Putnam Lake, service runs weekdays 5:00 a.m-7:00 p.m, Saturdays 8:00 a.m-4:00 p.m.
*PART 2: A line route serving Mahopac, Baldwin Place, Mahopac Falls, then running pickup/dropoff -only service to Jefferson Valley Mall in Yorktown Heights.
*PART 3: Serves the town of Kent, New York and the village of Patterson via Routes 22 and 311. Service is weekday-only, 8:00 a.m-5:00 p.m.
*PART 5: A loop route serving Carmel and Lake Carmel, operates weekdays 5:00 a.m-8:00 p.m, Saturdays 8:00 a.m-5:00 p.m.

PART also operates paratransit service for those unable to use regular route service due to disabilities and senior citizens. Until the end of 2006, a fifth route (PART 4) ran three days a week from Carmel to Jefferson Valley Mall, Cortlandt Town Center, then continuing on Route 9 through western Putnam County and then serving the commercial strip on that route in southern Dutchess County before ending at Poughkeepsie Galleria.

Connections

PART has connection points with several transit agencies from adjacent areas.
*Bee-Line Bus System: PART 2 terminates at Jefferson Valley Mall in Yorktown Heights, connecting with Bee-Line routes 12 and 16. PART buses also meet buses on Bee-Line route 77, an express route from White Plains to Mahopac.
*Housatonic Area Regional Transit: PART 1 connects with, depending on time of day, HART's Danbury-Brewster shuttle or HART route 3 in Brewster.
*Metro-North Railroad connections can be made via PART 1 at Brewster or PART 3 at Patterson.
