    The Sacramento Regional Transit District's (SacRT) SmaRT Ride on-demand microtransit shuttle is expanding two zones starting Aug. 29, 2022.

    The expansions will better serve residents living in the city of Elk Grove and the master-planned community of McClellan Park in north Sacramento.

    The SmaRT Ride zone improvements include:

    • Elk Grove Zone: The Elk Grove SmaRT Ride service area will expand to include connections to bus route E113, Elk Grove High School, Elk Grove Library, Elk Grove Adult Education Center, Elk Grove Food Bank, Old Town Plaza, Elk Grove Regional Park and several Elk Grove grocery stores.
    • Natomas-North Sacramento Zone: The North Sacramento zone will expand further to include McClellan Park, serving the VA Medical Clinic, and businesses in the southwestern part of McClellan Park.

    SmaRT Ride continues to be a popular transit option across the region. SacRT has nine SmaRT Ride zones, which has provided more than 170,000 trips in the past year.

Trip requests must be made on the same day. SmaRT Ride service is only available for travel within each designated service zone, as shuttles cannot travel outside the individual service boundaries.
