Southeastern Area Transit (SEAT) is a bus operator which serves New London, Norwich, and surrounding communities covering an area as far west as the Connecticut River (Old Lyme) and as far east as the Rhode Island state border (Stonington). However, most routes are either limited or infrequent in service, with hourly service on its few busiest routes centered around the urban core of Norwich, New London, and Groton. In 2013, SEAT filed a request for the Connecticut Department Of Transportation to take over SEAT as another division of Connecticut Transit. No further updates are available regarding this.
