A Source for Ongoing Communications during the COVID-19 Crisis

OCTA’s top priority is the health and safety of our customers and employees and we continue to take guidance from federal, state and local health experts and government leaders.

As Orange County residents comply with Gov. Newsom’s order to stay at home to help stop the spread of COVID-19, OCTA continues to evaluate service and make changes where appropriate. These changes are made after careful consideration to ensure the safety of OCTA employees and the community while continuing to provide reliable service for riders who depend on us.

During this uncertain time, ongoing communication regarding OCTA’s operations and services is critical.  Available in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese, a list of frequently asked COVID-19 questions (FAQ) and answers is posted on our website. Topic highlights are listed below and are subject to change. Please check the webpage for the most current information.

The COVID-19 FAQ is provided in addition to other ongoing communications including eblasts, social media posts, press releases and alerts on OCTA webpages.
