FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

YUBA-SUTTER TRANSIT’S ON-DEMAND SERVICE OFFICIALLY LAUNCHES

Community Invited to Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on May 29th 

May 22, 2025, Marysville, CA – Yuba-Sutter Transit is thrilled to announce the official launch of its new on-demand microtransit service, Mobility On-Demand by Yuba-Sutter Transit (MOD), serving the Linda and Olivehurst communities. This innovative, zonal on-demand service is now available to the public, marking a significant milestone for Yuba-Sutter Transit.  

As approved by the Board of Directors in December of 2024, MOD is designed to improve accessibility and convenience for residents in Linda and Olivehurst who do not have direct access to the local fixed routes. MOD operates as a shared-ride service, connecting riders to Routes #1, #3, and #6, serving as the first-mile-last-mile connector within each service zone.  

MOD enables riders to make real-time requests, cancellations, and access to live vehicle tracking through a new mobile application called MOD Ride Yuba-Sutter. The mobile application is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store and supports multiple languages, including Spanish, Punjabi, and more. Riders can also request MOD services by calling Customer Service at (530) MOD-RIDE or visiting www.yubasuttertransit.com/mod-ride. 

The MOD Basic one-way fare is $1.50, with a $4.50 Basic Daily Cap. Discount Fares are $.75, with a Discount Daily Cap of $2.25. The $10 Discounted and the $20 Basic Local Fixed Route Monthly Passes are also accepted, along with pre-paid fare tickets (available for purchase from Yuba-Sutter Transit). Payments will not be accepted directly through the MOD Ride mobile application.
