Nope. There is only the Clovis Area Transit that takes elderly and handicapped to places by appointment only.

Nate, if you know of anything else, please correct me.

We would love a Target! Last I heard, Clovis was around 32,000, serving an area of over 100,000.

Well the towns that do come here to shop ect I think are Portales, Bovina, Friona, Farwell, Texico, Lariat, Grady, Melrose, some from Muleshoe.....I said in an earlier post that we serve abt 120,000 ppl. But where would they put it?? Wal-mart is right where all the businesses are unless they find a build a new business area/street.

Well we do have the CATS (Clovis Area Transit Service)

It serves anybody who needs a ride not just elderly ppl..I have used it to get to work a couple of times when i truck was in the shop..You have to make day ahead appiontments..we just built a new transit station in the downtown area on 7th street..we just got new buses with digital signs..The city is trying to get a fixed route system like in the larger cities..with stops along major streets. It costs abt 75 cents each way
