Congratulations! You have received an appointment for your vaccination. We can help you find a way to get there. Middlesex County has over 40 vaccination sites across the county. This page is meant to serve as a tool to help you reach your vaccination site.
How to Navigate the Vaccination Transportation Finder:
- This transportation finder lists vaccination locations, taxis, municipal transportation, and transit services where available. You can use the legend below to sort by vaccination site or city.
- Please note, not all municipalities will transport residents to their vaccination appointments. It varies from town to town. Please read the Municipal Transportation column carefully.
- The taxi companies listed serve the towns in which the vaccination site is located. If you do not live in that town, you can still contact them for a ride. Please note rates and costs are based on your origin and destination.
- NJ TRANSIT is available for certain locations. Please click on the Green + button in the vaccination column.
- If you are a Middlesex County resident, Middlesex County Area Transportation (MCAT) is available to take you to your vaccination appointment if the site is located within Middlesex County. You must be pre-registered.
