Buses run more frequently during the UCD academic year when ridership is higher, and less frequently during the summer and breaks. Buses serve these locations every weekday from 7am-11pm, and the weekend from 9am-6pm. Many riders are students going to/from UCD, but the system is also used extensively for trips to places such as downtown, junior and senior high schools, library, hospital, neighborhood shopping centers, medical offices, senior center, theaters, and the Farmers’ Market.
