Mission Mission Statement adopted by the Board of Directors in November 1989:
The Metropolitan Transit System’s mission is a commitment to providing safe, reliable, accessible, and convenient bus and light rail transportation in the San Diego region. With an
emphasis on customer satisfaction, MTS contributes to expanding available public transportation by providing optimal service responsibly with a skilled team of dedicated employees.
Description As the largest provider of public transportation in San Diego County, the Metropolitan Transit System is committed to providing exceptional service to the people of the region.
Every year, more than 95 million people ride MTS buses and trolleys. We have more than 80 fixed-route bus lines and 54 miles of trolley service. Our fleet of electric low-floor trolleys and compressed natural gas and electric hybrid buses enable MTS to be one of the greenest companies in San Diego.
As our region continues to grow, there will be a greater dependence on public transportation. Consequently, MTS has added three new Bus Rapid Transit lines to provide high-speed, limited-stop bus service to SDSU, Otay Mesa, Rancho Bernardo and Escondido. Furthermore, MTS is working to expand blue line trolley service 11 miles from UCSD to University Town Center (UTC).
MTS is one of the most modern and dynamic public transportation systems in North America and we would love for you to help us achieve our goals!
