Shopping Bus Expanded Services

The ADRC now offers expanded specialized transit services throughout Sauk County on Wednesdays for local and now Madison area shopping. Every Wednesday the shopping bus will transport shoppers to one of four shopping locations. Bus Shopping Trips will rotate weekly between Baraboo Walmart, Madison West Towne Mall, Lake Delton Walmart, and Madison East Towne Mall. In addition to two new locations, buses will stop at these central locations and the shoppers can request to be taken to other shopping locations within a reasonable radius of that center stop. Our goal is to give you, our passengers, more control and freedom to choose where you shop.
