With Free Rides and Prizes, OCTA Encourages OC to Dump the Pump

On National Dump the Pump Day, June 21, people across the country will celebrate by sharing rides instead of driving by themselves.

Here in OC, rides on all fixed-route buses will be free when riders download the OC Bus app and complete the simple steps here. It’s the ideal way to encourage riders to try the easy-to-use app, which puts everything they need to plan, pay, and ride right on their smartphones. All OC Buses are equipped with mobile app readers that make boarding more efficient.

Flyers with “I Rode OC Bus” stickers will be available in the literature rack of the buses, and those who share selfies showing the stickers will be eligible to win Disneyland and Knott’s Berry Farm tickets and gift cards.
