SamTrans
Encyclopedia
SamTrans is a public transport
agency in and around San Mateo, California
, in the San Francisco Bay Area
. It provides bus service throughout San Mateo County
and into portions of San Francisco
and Palo Alto
. Service is largely concentrated on the Bay side of the San Bruno Mountains, leaving coast-side service south of Pacifica
spotty and intermittent.
SamTrans is constituted as a special district
under California state law. It is governed by a board of nine appointed members; two county Supervisors, one “transportation expert” appointed by the county
Board of Supervisors, three city councilpersons
appointed by the cities in the county to represent the county's judicial districts, and three citizens appointed by the other six board members (including one from the coastside).
The district was established in 1976 by Pittsburgh resident John Mauro and consolidated eleven different municipal bus systems serving the county. One year later, SamTrans began operation of mainline bus service to San Francisco.
In addition to fixed route
bus and paratransit
operations, the district participates in the administration of the San Jose
-San Francisco commuter rail line Caltrain
and provides funding for the San Mateo County portion of BART
system south of Daly City Station. SamTrans also once possessed the authority to alter service levels on this segment of BART which services the San Francisco International Airport
(SFO), and has done so on several occasions. However, in the face of increasing financial disputes, SamTrans and BART decided to end their partnership, giving BART full control over the extension, in early 2007. SamTrans also provides administrative support for the San Mateo County Transportation Authority, a separate board charged with administering the half cent (US$0.005) sales tax levy funding various highway and transit improvement projects.

Unlike most large transit operators in the Bay Area, SamTrans outsources
to private contractors the operation of a number of its routes. The current contract operator for Peninsula mainline, Coastside and paratransit services is MV Transportation
.
SamTrans previously operated special service for a couple of Bay Area events such as San Francisco 49ers
home football
games and the quirky Bay To Breakers
footrace in San Francisco.

Express bus
routes designated by a letter and X. In December 2009, seven express routes were eliminated due to budget constraints; route KX is the only express route still operating.
All local routes have either two or three digits. For three digit routes, the first digit identifies a rail connection:
All two digit routes are identified as community service routes. Most of these routes do not connect with rail and operate only on school days.
The second digit of the three digit routes, as well as the first digit of the two digit routes, identifies the geographical coverage of the route:
SamTrans offers bus tokens
for adult and youth local fares, US$12.50 and US$8.00 respectively, in packages of ten. Multiple tokens or combinations of tokens and cash are accepted for journeys requiring higher fares. Tokens are promoted as being easier to handle than cash, and also include discounts. For example, a package of youth tokens includes 2 free rides assuming the others are worth $1 each.
In addition, SamTrans typically offers a discount summer pass for youth which is treated like a monthly pass, but good for the entire summer. They typically cost a few dollars more than a normal youth monthly pass. These passes usually do not go on sale until mid-May.
SamTrans does not provide transfers nor day passes. The Federal Transit Administration
has recommended SamTrans introduce transfers and/or day passes to increase bus ridership. SamTrans is in the process of purchasing new fareboxes that have the ability to issue transfers. The purchases and installation is expected to be completed by the end of 2009.
BART Plus tickets and Caltrain monthly passes (with two or more zones) are honoured on SamTrans as local fare payment.
As of December 22, 2010, Clipper card fare machines became fully operational throughout the system, allowing riders to pay fares using a transit smart card that is also accepted by most other Bay Area transit agencies.
SamTrans is in the midst of testing a new, state-of-the-art farebox that will have the ability to accept (in addition to cash) paper and magnetic-stripe tickets as well as the ability to issue change cards in the event that the rider overpays due to lack of exact change. SamTran's 2011 Summer Youth Pass will be among the first types of magnetic tickets available. There is also speculation that this new fareboxes will be able to issue day passes. All buses are expected to be equipped with the new fareboxes by 1 June 2011.
