Albany. There is a possibility that there may be a van that will travel from
Augusta to Albany. If you would like to purchase a seat on the bus or ask
about the possibility of a van leaving from Augusta.
Please contact Dorothy Griffin at 770-374-4832.
Ticket Price for the bus or van will be $60.00 per person
If you are coming from Columbus GA, unfortunately the bus will not be making
any stops in Columbus, you will have to travel by Greyhound.
