Carmarthenshire County Council is seeking people's views on its new Community Transport Strategy.
The council, which is actively involved in planning and commissioning public transport services, is asking for views from individuals and organisations.
The strategy will outline the role of community transport in the county and its contribution to an effective and inclusive public transport network.
The consultation is being carried out by the council in partnership with the TAS Partnership, which has been commissioned to support the development of the strategy.
This project is being partly funded by the council and the UK Government, through the UK Government's Shared Prosperity Fund.
The council sees community transport services, such as dial-a-ride and voluntary car schemes, as essential for maintaining rural and accessible public transport links.
These services provide door-to-door journeys in fully accessible vehicles, with driver assistance if needed.

Cabinet member for transport, waste, and infrastructure services, Councillor Edward Thomas, said: "Connectivity and accessibility are central to facilitating economic and social well-being for our residents and communities.
"It is very important, therefore, that we gather their views to help us build a new, fit-for-purpose Community Transport Strategy that will enable those residents, who rely on community transport schemes, to access services and employment, to feel connected to their communities, and prosper."
Residents and organisations are encouraged to visit the Carmarthenshire County Council website to take part in the consultation.
The Community Transport Strategy Consultation for Carmarthenshire is open until Friday, December 13.
The council is hoping the initiative will be a significant step towards ensuring all residents' transport needs are met.
