CITY OF SANTA CLARITA LAUNCHES SANTA CLARITA CONNECT TRANSIT APP

The City of Santa Clarita is introducing a new way to book local transit. Santa Clarita Connect brings together three key ride services from Santa Clarita Transit – Go! Santa Clarita, Dial-A-Ride (DAR) and Access Services – all into one convenient mobile app.

Santa Clarita Connect makes it simple for riders to plan and manage trips. Whether scheduling a same-day Go! Santa Clarita ride or reserving a DAR or Access trip up to a week in advance, users can now do it all in one place.
