For additional information regarding ParaTRAX or to make a reservation, please call 530.529.3099.
 
Service
Dial-a-ride transit service in the greater Red Bluff area. ParaTRAX is a "rideshare" program which means rides are booked in advance and routed as efficiently as possible. You will be sharing the bus with other riders which may lengthen ride times. Drivers will assist with boarding but are not allowed to assist passengers to or from their door or to assist with carry-on items.
 
3-Minute Wait Time
The bus will wait 3 minutes from the time of arrival. Drivers are not allowed to honk the horn, so you need to be watching for the bus. In most cases, ParaTRAX will not wait for passengers to reboard the buses. Exceptions may include prescription or daycare pick-up/drop-off if arranged in advance.
 
Cancellations & No-shows
Please cancel reservations as far in advance as possible. Anyone who fails to cancel a ride in advance or does not board the bus within the 3-minute wait time is considered a "No Show". Three no-shows in a 30-day period will result in a 30-day suspension of service.
 
Restrictions
Vehicles can not travel on most gravel or dirt roads, alleys, driveways, private roads, narrow cul-de-sacs, parking lots, etc.
 
Reservations
Reservations will be accepted up to 1/2 hour prior to the scheduled end of service as described in Hours of Operation. Advance Reservations Are Required For Pickup And Return Trips. Reservations must be made one to seven days in advance. A reservation will be given for the time requested to the extent possible. Reservation times may be scheduled within one hour before or after the requested time. Reservations will be accepted up to seven days prior to the day of service. Subscription service (on-going reservations for repetitive trips) will be provided on a limited, space-available basis.
 
Same-Day Reservations (Extra charge)
A reservation will be given for the earliest time available on a "first-come-first-served" basis. However, due to limited capacity, it is possible that service may not be available.
 
Pick-Up Time
The bus may arrive up to 15 minutes before or after the scheduled time. For example, if your scheduled pickup time is 8:00 a.m., the bus may arrive any time between 7:45 - 8:15 a.m.

Companion Reservations (ADA only)
Reservations for companions who will accompany an ADA-certified individual will be accepted to the extent that seating is available. Companions pay the same fare as the ADA-certified passenger.
