Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox bus transit City of Santa Clarita Transit is a local bus service, administered by the City's transit division, that serves the City of Santa Clarita, California and nearby surrounding unincorporated areas. In Шаблон:American transit ridership, the system had a ridership of Шаблон:American transit ridership, or about Шаблон:American transit ridership per weekday as of Шаблон:American transit ridership. Daily operations and maintenance of the fleet are under contract with MV Transportation.[1] City of Santa Clarita Transit routes connect with services operated by Metro and Metrolink.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Works contracts with City of Santa Clarita Transit to provide fixed route and Dial-A-Ride services in some unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County that are near the city limits of Santa Clarita. These areas include the communities of Castaic, Forest Park, Stevenson Ranch, Sunset Pointe, and Val Verde.
History
The City of Santa Clarita assumed responsibility for local transit in 1991 from Los Angeles County, which had developed an embryonic transit network. A small City staff provides supervision over a contract operator. Over time, the local fixed route network and dial-a-ride service was expanded. Under City management, a number of new regional express services to various points in the San Fernando Valley, West Los Angeles, Antelope Valley, and downtown Los Angeles were added or improved.[2]
MV Transportation
In mid-2007 Santa Clarita Transit entered into a contract with MV Transportation and underwent a branding overhaul. The agency was renamed "City of Santa Clarita Transit" and buses received a new green and blue livery which reflect the colors of the city logo.[3] The livery debuted in August 2007 on 2 brand new Шаблон:Convert articulated buses. Also receiving an overhaul are the city's bus stops through a $2-million dollar Bus Stop Improvement Program. This included replacing 51 Clear Channel advertising shelters, benches, and trash cans. In addition, 40 additional stops will receive new non-advertising shelters, as well as a number of stops receiving new non-advertisement benches. An element of public art will be added to approximately 15 bus stops. The program's purpose is threefold, bus stops will become more uniform in look and features, the advertisement on benches will be eliminated, and public art will have a large expansion.[4] The overhauls are major parts of the city's efforts to make transit more attractive to citizens.
Starting in 2010, City of Santa Clarita Transit began Summer Beach bus service to Santa Monica State Beach, from Canyon Country, and Newhall. They were separated into two routes servicing each destination to Santa Monica State Beach. However, the 2023 Summer Beach Bus, is no longer serving Santa Monica State Beach, it instead is serving Ventura Harbor at Spinnaker Drive. The service stops at Via Princessa Metrolink Station & McBean Regional Transit Center. This service is only operated during the summer.
2023 Transit Service Workers Strike
On September 15, 2023, after over a year of negotiations with MV Transportation, transit service workers represented by Teamsters Local 572 voted to go on strike until a fair contract is reached. MV Transportation was notified of the decision to strike on September 28.[5]
The strike officially began on October 9, halting all bus and paratransit services across the city. The strike forced Santa Clarita Transit and William S. Hart High School District to negotiate an emergency contract with charter bus company Transit Systems in order to provide limited school tripper services to select schools and infrequent bus services along routes 1, 2, 5, 6, and 12.[5] Santa Clarita City Council has declined to enter into contract negotiations as a third party.[6]
As of December 3, the strike is ongoing with limited bus service along select lines and limited Dial-a-Ride service for those with urgent medical appointments.[7][8]
