The City of Cleburne, under Texas Transportation Code Chapter 458, serves as a rural transit district for rural areas of Johnson County and therefore receives state funding for rural transit services. The city provides transit services via its transit department, JC Connect (known as Cletran).

JC Connect assumes the responsibility to provide transit services for the DFWA UZA in Johnson County under an interlocal cooperative agreement with the North Central Texas Council of Governments. JC Connect currently operates demand-response service for the general public that covers all of Johnson County and areas within the city limits of Burleson in Tarrant County. JC Connect provides demand response services to Huguley and non-emergency medical transportation service to eligible riders in the county and accepts trip requests that either originate or end at the Huguley Hospital.

The Amtrak passenger rail line passes through JC Connect’s service area. JC Connect can provide a connection to Amtrak at the Intermodal Depot in Cleburne.

The Cleburne City Council serves as the governing body of JC Connect. The Cleburne City Council consists of a mayor and four councilmembers.
