The Albion Marshall Connector is a bus that offers curb to curb service between the Albion and Marshall communities.

Visit the Connector Facebook page.
The Connector operates on weekdays, and it is best to call to order a ride one day ahead of time.
(517) 654-3000 – The fee is $1 each way between Albion and Marshall.
Since the recent annexation of Albion Public Schools into the Marshall Public School system, and the older loss of Albion Community Hospital and more use of Marshall’s Oaklawn Hospital, Albion residents are increasingly needing to go to Marshall for some basic services. Sometimes, transportation is an issue, and when this is the case, there are options for getting around from Albion to Marshall and back.
The service has been funded through a series of grants and donation but more donations are needed. Tax deductible donations made be made to the City of Albion or the City of Marshall with the note that the donation is for the Albion Marshall Connector. We will post more information about donations later.
