| Sacramento RT Introduces Citrus Heights ‘City Ride’ |
|
The Sacramento Regional Transit District (RT), in partnership with the city of Citrus Heights, CA, introduced “City Ride”—a curb-to-curb, “dial-a-ride” service for the general public—on Oct. 29. The new shuttle service operates between all destinations within Citrus Heights and Mercy San Juan Medical Center on Coyle Avenue in Carmichael. In the near future, RT also plans to expand service to Kaiser Medical Offices on Riverside Avenue in Roseville.
City Ride operates weekdays from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., using vehicles that can seat 12-14 passengers with space for two wheelchairs, and requires reservations. Regular RT basic and discount fares apply.
“Residents of Citrus Heights will benefit from City Ride and other bus service improvements implemented in September as part of TransitRenewal,” said Citrus Heights Mayor Jeff Slowey. TransitRenewal is the public transit agency’s comprehensive operational analysis, designed to improve service in Citrus Heights and connections throughout the Sacramento region. |
