It has operated as a bus system since 1930, and has been fully operated by the city since 1978. The system operates across the Fox Cities and serves the cities of Appleton, Kaukauna, Menasha, and Neenah, as well as the towns of Buchanan and Grand Chute; and the villages of Fox Crossing, Darboy, Kimberly, and Little Chute. It connects with Oshkosh's GO Transit system via Route 10. Through an agreement with the Appleton Area School District. Valley Transit allows all students enrolled in an AASD middle/high school to ride the bus unlimited for free during the school year.[4]HistoryPublic transportation in the area originated with streetcar systems, which operated from 1886 to 1930 when they were completely replaced by buses operated by a company called Fox River Bus Lines. Toward the end of the 1960s, the city began to subsidize the company, until it bought and took over operations on New Year's Day 1978. WifiIn early February 2011, Valley Transit announced a partnership with Open Range to provide free wifi on the buses to advertise being new in the area. This service ended in November 2011 after only 8 months. RoutesValley Transit’s operations comprise 18 fixed bus routes all routes except #10 are roundtrip meaning they begin/end at the same place. In addition, they operate multiple seasonal (Tripper) routes which typically only run a limited number of times daily to connect most of the AASD middle/high schools to the Appleton Transit Center. Valley Transit also operates a paratransit service (contracted out to a local bus company), which shuttles elderly passengers from their homes to regular-route bus stops and functions much as a taxi service for disabled passengers. The company operates 25 buses between 5:45 AM and 10:30 PM on Weekdays, and 7:45 AM to 10:30 PM on Saturdays, with no service on Sundays. {{Maplink|frame=yes||text=Map of current routes|type=line|id=Q55577438|title=Midway|stroke-color=#ffdc3d |type2=line|id2=Q55577804|title2=Prospect|stroke-color2=#a57e64 |type3=line|id3=Q55577912|title3=Mason|stroke-color3=#fea6bd |type4=line|id4=Q55578093|title4=Richmond|stroke-color4=#00afd1 |type5=line|id5=Q55578257|title5=North Oneida|stroke-color5=#949a9f |type6a=line|id6a=Q55578546|title6a=Meade|stroke-color6a=#a64d61 |type6=line|id6=Q55654870|title6=Tululah|stroke-color6=#c49dcc |type7=line|id7=Q55673638|title7=The Link|stroke-color7=#009966 |type8=line|id8=Q55675662|title8=East College/Buchanan|stroke-color8=#ff7334 |type9=line|id9=Q55676550|title9=Fox Valley Tech|stroke-color9=#63cd58 |type10=line|id10=Q55693716|title10=West College|stroke-color10=#61666c |type11=line|id11=Q55736385|title11=Northeast|stroke-color11=#2e7864 |type12=line|id12=Q55736389|title12=Southeast|stroke-color12=#636851 |type13=line|id13=Q55736394|title13=Heart of the Valley|stroke-color13=#2f58a7 |type14=line|id14=Q55743905|title14=Neenah/Menasha|stroke-color14=#735950 |type15=line|id15=Q55912036|title15=East Neenah|stroke-color15=#cc0000 |type16=line|id16=Q57802168|title16=West Neenah|stroke-color16=#6699ff |type17=line|id17=Q59509980|title17=West Fox Valley|stroke-color17=#7b5f85 }}
