San Joaquin RTD reinvents Van Go! as a true countywide service

Jan. 12, 2021
For this new pilot program, RTD has eliminated zones, transfers and restrictions on trip origin and destination.

The San Joaquin Regional Transit District (RTD) has launched a new iteration of its Van Go! service in response to customer feedback. 

RTD Van Go! is an on-demand rideshare service that will help residents travel more easily throughout San Joaquin County.  For this new pilot program, RTD has eliminated zones, transfers and restrictions on trip origin and destination; trips can be made as long as the travel is within San Joaquin County. Every RTD Van Go! vehicle is wheelchair accessible and its drivers are trained, licensed and fully prepared to help with accessibility needs. 

“We are excited to be able to offer a true countywide premium service with the changes,” said San Joaquin RTD CEO Gloria Salazar.   

Passengers may create a tailor-made trip with RTD’s Van Go! anywhere within San Joaquin County seven days a week, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  Using the RTD Van Go! app, which is available for download from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store, passengers may book a ride up to two days in advance.
