Marin-Sonoma Coordinated Transit Service Plan (MASCOTS)

The Marin-Sonoma Coordinated Transit Service Plan (MASCOTS) is a proposal to grow ridership and improve effectiveness of public transit services offered in the Highway 101 corridor. This is a collaborative project among nine transit and funding agencies, including Marin Transit, to create a more connected, frequent transit network. Please complete this survey to provide input on MASCOTS and your travel in Central and Southern Marin County. 

More information on MASCOTS can be found at www.mascotsplan.org.

Service Recommendations for Marin Transit

MASCOTS recommends that Marin Transit consolidate Routes 36 and 71 to provide a single 15-minute service between San Rafael Transit Center and Marin City on one route that serves all of the bus pads on Highway 101 in Marin County.  

A draft service concept to fulfill this recommendation can be found here. 

We encourage you to complete the MASCOTS survey which will inform how Marin Transit adjusts local bus service. A formal Marin Transit service change proposal will be released this fall. 

Stay tuned for more information and additional events to discuss Marin Transit service changes!
