General Information
The fleet’s comfortable motor coaches
provide weekday round trip bus service from Santa Maria and Lompoc to Santa Barbara
and Goleta . Each bus is
fully air conditioned and equipped with reading lights and
individual highback seats for your commuting comfort.
How To Use The Service
First, look at the
schedule and see if there is a stop near your workplace and drop
off and pick up times that fit your schedule. Then either
purchase a pass at the Santa Maria Area Transit Office, Albertson's supermarket in Lompoc, or the MTD Transit Center on Chapala St. in Santa Barbara.

for monthly passholders. Passes are also available through the mail using the
pass
purchase form.
All
Clean Air Express passes are valid on any Clean Air Express bus.
Fares
The cost to ride the Clean Air Express is
$140.00/calendar month for all routes. The Clean Air Express operates Monday through Friday,
250 days a year. Service is not provided on approximately 10
holidays/year. A book of ten tickets is available for $50.00,
and passengers can pay a cash fare of $7.00 when boarding the
bus (exact change required).
Free Time!
Since Clean Air Express riders don’t have
to drive, they have time everyday to spend on other activities.
You can read, pay bills, or just sleep!
Save Money
Clean Air Express riders save thousands of
dollars per year in commute costs! Click on the "Calculate Your
Commute Costs" link above to
determine how much you are spending to drive to work. For many
people, commuting on the Clean Air Express can easily put $500 back in their pocket every month.
Arrive Ready to Work

on driving, they can enjoy a relaxing commute and arrive rested
and ready to work.
