26 Oct October 26, 2020 Service Updates – Sunday Transit is Back! Monday-Friday Service Has a Mobile App
October 26, 2020 Update:
We’re happy to announce that ShastaConnect services have been updated and expanded. Please see the specifics below. We continue to implement best practices per federal/state guidelines to keep everyone safe on our vehicles.
Monday-Friday Service Changes:
Our Monday-Friday service has gone digital! Starting October 26, 2020, riders can now use a mobile app to submit ride requests. Please download the app from the links here:
- Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=shasta.connect&hl=en_US&gl=US
- Apple Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/shastaconnect/id1525675790
Additionally, all riders will ride free on the service to help alleviate economic impacts due to COVID-19 and community shutdowns, at least through December 31, 2020. We’ll provide future updates on when fares return to normal.
Lastly, we want to remind our community that anyone in the service area who needs a ride (outside the RABA service area) can schedule a ride. Due to capacity limitations and rider demand, there may be challenges in meeting your ride request. Please feel free to call us at (530) 226-3075 if you have any questions.
Sunday Service Resumes, starting November 1, 2020!
We’re happy to announce our Sunday Transit service is coming back, starting November 1, 2020, and you can request rides starting October 26, 2020. We also have a new, more rider-friendly app, which is available to download here (please note that if you previously rode our Sunday service you will need to create a new account as the prior app was replaced):
- Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=shasta.connect&hl=en_US&gl=US
- Apple Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/shastaconnect/id1525675790
Additionally, we’re now serving the cities of Anderson and Shasta Lake, as well as Redding. Check out our webpage to see the new service area map (https://www.shastaconnect.org/sunday-schedule-map/). We look forward to seeing you on ShastaConnect soon!
