Last year, the City of Irvine launched a one-year pilot program for a free shuttle bus service to connect Irvine residents to parks, schools, hospitals, and shopping centers.

Due to its popularity and increasing ridership, the shuttle service is now permanent and additional routes have been added to reach even more Irvine neighborhoods.

The program has proven to be especially helpful for students traveling to and from school and for seniors who need to get to medical appointments and shopping centers.

All of the buses are equipped with bike racks, and are fully accessible by wheelchair and other mobility aids. And riders have access to free wi-fi service.
