Originally launched in 2022, the Chula Vista Community Shuttle is now available to all adults in Northwest Chula Vista with an expansion to this service announced on Aug. 13 at a press conference at City Hall. The shuttle service is a free door-to-door service for those 55 years old and over, and riders between 18 and 54 can also now ride for $2 per ride. Children may also ride along with adults.
The service area runs approximately from the Sweetwater River to the North, to the bayfront on the west, to Interstate 805/Hilltop Drive to the East, and L Street to the south Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
The program is funded by a $1 million grant from the Community Congregational Development Corp. and a $1.5 million grant from Clean Mobility Options. The shuttle operates an all-electric powered fleet of five sedans, including ADA-accessible vehicles.
