Omnitrans 1-6-2020

The stockings were hung, the turkey carved, gifts exchanged, and the champagne flutes poured. It’s now time to usher in 2020 with minor timing adjustments – effective Monday, January 6, 2020 – and tech enhancements to drive us into success in the new year!

Most changes are slight run times adjustments designed to improve transfers, on-time performance of buses, and overall quality of service. Route 15 will be modified slightly to travel along Merrill Ave. between Alder and Sierra in Fontana (see map below). The San Bernardino County Courthouse will continue to be served by Route 12.

Additionally, we are continuing our partnership with the Transit app to answer all your trip planning and bus arrival time questions! As you know, the Transit app became the official Omnitrans app in the fall, and the Omnitrans mobile app was discontinued. The Transit app provides a more comprehensive approach to trip planning, including multi-modal connection options such as Uber, Lyft, and other neighboring transit services – all in one place.

Did we mention that by February, Token Transit mobile fares will be integrated with the Transit app? That’s right! Then, you will be able to pay, plan, and predict all from a single app with Transit.

For all routes with time changes, see the list below, and don’t forget to check the Bus Book and plan before you travel!
