Description
You have the RIDE to VOTE! BIG BEAR VALLEY/RIM COMMUNITIES, CA – October 22, 2026 – Mountain Transit
will offer free fares on Tuesday, November 3, in recognition of Election Day, with support
from the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA).
While Mountain Transit’s local fixed-route and Dial-A-Ride services are already free, on
Election Day, Off-the-Mountain and Premium Service riders can also take advantage of
free fares. Route 5 Off-the-Mountain does not operate on Tuesdays; Route 6 Off-the-
Mountain will operate its regular weekday service fare-free.
Election Day is an opportunity to encourage residents to use public transportation. By
offering free fares, Mountain Transit hopes to make it easier for residents to travel to
polling locations and other destinations throughout the mountain communities.
Mountain Transit provides Fixed Route, Off-the-Mountain (OTM), Dial-A-Ride and
Premium Service throughout the rural San Bernardino Mountain communities of the Big
Bear Valley, and Rim communities, including Crestline, Lake Arrowhead, and Running
Springs.
