El Dorado Transit operates three distinct flexible services to get you where you need to be around El Dorado County and Sacramento.

Dial-a-Ride

Dial-A-Ride is El Dorado Transit’s curb-to-curb transportation service, available by advanced reservation. Curb-to-curb means that the Dial-A-Ride van or bus will pick up a passenger at the designated location at a pre-scheduled time and take them to a pre-scheduled destination. Sometimes passengers will share a ride with other passengers; this is to ensure that El Dorado Transit can provide service for the largest number of passengers possible. Ride requests are accepted on a first come/first served basis. Dial-A-Ride is available to seniors (60 and older) and persons with disabilities who are registered in the El Dorado Transit Dial-A-Ride system.

ADA Paratransit

Complementary Paratransit is an origin to destination transportation service operating during the same hours as the local fixed route services.

Sac-Med

SAC-MED is a shared-ride non-emergency medical appointment transportation service available to seniors (60 and older) and persons with disabilities who are registered in the El Dorado Transit system. SAC-MED only operates on Tuesdays and Thursdays for medical appointments, in the greater Sacramento area, made between 10:00 am and 2:00 pm.
