Operations
GOJO was launched on May 4, 2006 under the name of Jonesboro Economical Transit System, with three buses operating on 3 fixed routes (15,35,55) and 4 paratransit vans.[3] As of 2018, there are five fixed routes, with five buses normally running those routes (17, 27, 37, 43, 53). Hours of operation are from 5:00 am to 7:00 pm on weekdays,[4] with limited Saturday service also available on select routes.
JETS was officially rebranded to GOJO on March 4th of 2026 during a City of Jonesboro’s State of the City Address[5].
Regional Transfer Station
The Regional Transfer Station serves as the primary transfer hub for GOJO, with connections to Greyhound Lines buses at Caraway Road and Matthews Avenue. The $1.1 million project broke ground on April 30, 2015 and opened on October 23 that year.[6][7] The new facility provides space for eight buses and a 2,000 square foot waiting area for passengers.[8]
