Help Us Improve OC Bus
OCTA continues to provide essential OC Bus service that keeps Orange County moving. Since the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic began in March 2020, we have made adjustments to ensure that people remain connected to the places they need to be while responding to a substantial decrease in ridership.
Following the first stay-at-home order in March 2020, OC Bus service was reduced to Sunday service schedules on all routes, seven days a week. Subsequent service changes in June 2020, October 2020, and February 2021 increased service and provided an enhanced Saturday service schedule on weekdays and a regular, pre-COVID-19 schedule on Saturdays and Sundays. We are continuing to monitor demand and making changes as we move forward.
During the pandemic, our goal has been to comply with federal and state orders for safety and social distancing while continuing to provide critical service for those needing to make essential trips. As always, the safety of our employees and passengers remains our top priority. We appreciate your understanding and patience.
The following is information regarding the June 2021 Service Change and a request for feedback about bus service changes made during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
June 2021 Service Change
Since March 2020, changes to service have included reducing service frequency on 37 routes and temporarily suspending eight routes. Some of that service has since been restored and only minor changes are planned to go into effect on June 13.
Members of the public are encouraged to share their opinions on all of the changes to date.
