With the start of summer, SamTrans is updating its bus service schedules and routes. School-oriented routes will be suspended from this coming Sunday through August. The schedule change also includes adjustments to routes 110, 117, 260, and 294 for efficiency.
As opposed to buying three separate passes for the summer months, parents are allowed to purchase a $40 Summer Youth Pass for children 18 years and under. This pass is good for unlimited rides on any SamTrans route from June 1 through August 31.
Students who qualified for the Youth Unlimited Pass during the school year can continue to use their pass throughout the summer.
Passes can be purchased online at SamTrans.com/SYP or in person by visiting SamTrans headquarters at 1250 San Carlos Ave., San Carlos, which is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The SYP isn’t available on the Clipper card. SamTrans also has a mobile app that makes it easy to purchase the Youth Pass.
