Taking public transit to and from school could be the easiest thing students do all day.
They can sit back, relax, read, listen to music, mentally add up all the money they're saving (rather, saving their parents) on gas, or even nap. They can leave the driving to the experts and dash off to class without giving a second thought about getting to and from school.
The Riverside Transit Agency is the number-one source of travel for thousands of students across western Riverside County. Not only is public transit affordable, it's also clean, reliable and extremely safe. In fact, safety is RTA's number-one goal and we take several steps to ensure a pleasant experience for every customer on every trip. From August 2020 through July 2022, anyone age 18 and under can ride RTA buses for free. Click here for more information and to see our commitment to safety when you travel with us.
Most bus routes travel within a mile of a school, and several routes provide direct service to campuses. So, find your school below and see which bus routes can get you there. Our friendly drivers are glad to assist students and our Customer Information Center is always available to find the nearest stop and the best route to class. To plan your trip, you can call us at (951) 565-5002.
