Chula Vista Community Shuttle service will expand into southwest Chula Vista, city officials announced.
The on-demand service is intended to increase mobility, connectivity and equity for residents, particularly older adults and underserved communities along the Interstate 5 corridor.
Mayor John McCann and city councilmembers, along with other partners, will host a formal launch for the new service area at the South Chula Vista Library, 389 Orange Ave. The event begins at 11 a.m. Tuesday.
The expanded shuttle footprint, officials said in a news release, improves access to key community destinations such as major shopping centers, grocery stores, the South Branch Library and all three San Diego Trolley stations.
It will reach farther along Third Avenue, extending south to Anita Street and west to the bayfront, offering access to residents of multiple mobile home parks, six which are senior focused, and affordable housing complexes.
The plan is that by including the Palomar Trolley stop, the expansion will link residents to broader transit options, including major bus routes and the Blue Line, providing access to downtown San Diego and the U.S.-Mexico border.
The community shuttle, which offers free service to those aged 55 and over, and low-cost rides to individuals aged 18-55, is made possible in part by $1.8 million of multi-year funding by the California Air Resources Board’s Clean Mobility Options program and the California Energy Commission.
