Mountain Mobility (formerly known as BOOST-Buncombe Specialized Transportation) was established by Buncombe County in 1989 to provide transportation services for residents of Buncombe County. Originally intended to serve the transportation needs of a few core human service agencies, the system has grown to serve a wide variety of organizations as well as provide limited general public transportation services for medical and employment purposes.

In June of 2005, Buncombe County assumed full responsibility of the operations of Mountain Mobility. All staff including drivers and dispatchers are now Buncombe County employees. Today, Mountain Mobility operates 34 vans and 2 small buses with 47 drivers and provides about 500 passenger trips throughout Buncombe County on a typical weekday.
