Getting Around by Bus
The county's door-to-door bus — rides around Galena, across the county, and out to Dubuque for the doctor — what each costs and how to book.
If driving to Dubuque has gotten harder — or you'd just rather not make the trip yourself — the county runs an on-demand bus that picks you up at your door. It carries anyone in Jo Daviess County to appointments, errands, and the next town over, including medical trips out to Dubuque. You book it by phone; here's where each ride goes, what it costs, and how far ahead to call.
