Contra Costa SchoolPool program offers free transit passes for students

The SchoolPool program encourages students in grades 6-12 to use public transit instead of a car to get to and from school. The Central and East Contra Costa County program offers complimentary introductory County Connection or Tri Delta Transit bus passes for up to three (3) students per household.

Your child must attend primary or secondary school and be 19 years of age or younger. Eligible communities include: Antioch, Bay Point, Brentwood, Byron, Clayton, Concord, Discovery Bay, Knightsen, Martinez, Oakley, Pacheco, Pittsburg, Pleasant Hill and Walnut Creek.

A parent or guardian must complete the application. Parents must pledge that their student will ride the bus to and from school instead of being driven by the parent/guardian. The parent or guardian must also agree to complete a follow-up survey to assess the effectiveness of the SchoolPool Program.
