Turlock Transit Amtrak Shuttle

Starting Monday, January 3, 2022, Turlock Transit began providing an Amtrak Shuttle service for same-day transportation to and from locations in Denair or Turlock and the Turlock-Denair Amtrak Station.  This new, demand-response service is intended to improve transit connectivity to rail services for commuters, university students, as well as other members of the general public.
DEPARTING PASSENGERS
  • Passengers traveling to Amtrak should call Turlock Transit at (209) 668-5600 to make a reservation at least one (1) hour prior to the arrival of the desired Amtrak train to make a reservation.
  • The passenger will be given a window of time to expect a pick-up and a bus will be dispatched. 
  • The passenger will receive a phone call approximately five (5) minutes prior to the arrival of the bus.
  • Upon arrival, the passenger should be visible and ready to board the bus and pay the fare.
  • As a shared ride service, the bus may pick up other passengers also traveling to the same destination prior to arrival at the Amtrak station.

ARRIVING PASSENGERS
  • Passengers arriving on Amtrak can make reservations for their return trip, but are not required to, as a Turlock Transit bus will be waiting at the Amtrak station for all trains (during Turlock Transit's operating hours).
  • Passengers should walk from the Amtrak platform to the waiting bus, advise the driver of the drop-off location, pay the fare, and board the bus.
  • Passengers will be taken directly to their drop-off location. If multiple passengers are on-board, they will be dropped off based on the most efficient route.

AVAILABILITY
​The service will be available during regular Turlock Transit service hours, which are Monday-Friday (6:00 a.m. - 9:00 p.m.) and Saturday (9:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m.), excluding holidays.

COST
The cost to use the service is $2.50 per-person, each way.  Passengers have the option of using cash/coin, $5 or $10 Stored Value passes, or digital passes purchased through the Token Transit app.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
All public transit services must adhere to public health and safety requirements, including federal mask mandates. This service is open to all members of the general public; no specific eligibility rules apply. Children under nine (9) years old must be accompanied by an adult.  As a pilot project, this service is subject to modification, extension, or termination based on ridership demand, grant requirements, or available resources.
