The Bis-Man Transit Board was officially formed on April 28, 1987, with the aim of providing transportation for the elderly and those with disabilities.

The push to start a fixed route system to serve Bismarck and Mandan began in August 2000 when consultants were hired to conduct a transit study.

Two shelters serve as the primary hub for Bis-Man Transit with 5 routes terminating here.
