Public Transit

Skip the traffic and ride in style — western style!

Santa Clarita Transit

  • Santa Clarita Transit is offering FREE rides on Routes 4/14, 5/6, and 12 during Cowboy Festival weekend — if you’re dressed in western wear!
  • What counts as western wear?
    Dust off those cowboy boots, throw on a fringe jacket, grab a cowboy hat, or rock that bandana. Whether it’s a bolo tie, plaid shirt, or a head-to-toe cowboy outfit — if you’re dressed the part, you ride for free.
