MTD Bus Capacity to Decrease Temporarily
Beginning Wednesday, December 23rd, 2020, Santa Barbara MTD will decrease the number of passengers allowed on board all MTD buses.
Load limits will be decreased as follows: 12 passengers on a 40 foot bus and 8 passengers on a 30 foot bus. This is down from the previous capacity of 15 passengers on a 40 foot bus and 10 on a 30 foot bus.
As has been the case throughout the pandemic, a bus may pass up a person waiting at a bus stop if the amount of passengers onboard has already reached the limit. We apologize for any inconvenience that may result.
