In 2005, the Fort Bend County Commissioners Court approved the creation of the Fort Bend County Public Transportation Department (FBCPTD) to serve the general public in Fort Bend County.  The purpose of the FBCPTD was to provide seamless service between urban and rural communities; access rural transit funding and increase services to residents in Fort Bend County without increasing a financial burden to the taxpayers.  Today, the Fort Bend County Public Transportation Department is known as Fort Bend Transit (FBT).

Fort Bend Transit’s mission is to provide safe and efficient public transportation services while maintaining service quality and customer satisfaction.

FBT provides approximately 392, 000 annual passenger trips (data from October 2018 – September 2019) to destinations in Fort Bend and Harris Counties.  The services provided are Demand Response and Commuter Park and Ride Services.  FBT is located in Rosenberg and has a core inventory of vehicles as well as a fleet provided through a contracted service provider.

Demand Response Service is a curb-to-curb, shared-ride service that covers all of Fort Bend County. Customers must register for the service over the phone and may start making their reservations at least one (1) day in advance or up to thirty (30) days in advance.  Demand Response Service operates Monday through Friday, excluding County acknowledged holidays, from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm.

Commuter Park and Ride Service provide weekday service to the Texas Medical Center, Greenway Plaza, and Galleria areas of Houston.  Services operate from three (3) park and ride lot locations: (1) in Rosenberg at the Fort Bend County Fairgrounds and two (2) in Sugar Land at the University of Houston – Sugar Land and three (3) the AMC Theatre at First Colony.  Commuter service includes morning and evening schedules.  Commuter Service operates during peak hours Monday through Friday, excluding County acknowledged holidays, with routes starting as early as 4:30 am and ending as late as 9:00 pm.
