Unlike many other public transportation authorities, CARTA is more than just bus transportation. CARTA operates the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway, the steepest passenger railway in the world; the Downtown Electric Shuttle with one of the largest fleets of electric buses in the United States; parking garages in Downtown Chattanooga with convenient access to the Shuttle system and Care-A-Van, a curb-to-curb service for people with disabilities.
