Maybe there aren’t enough people who are willing to ride the bus, or perhaps the public bus system is grossly underfunded, but Gold Coast Transit, formerly South Coast Area Transit (SCAT), is a poor excuse for public transportation.
While their bus fares seem to be average with the nation, everything else about Gold Coast Transit seems to be lacking. The route schedules are far and few between. Buses, according to their schedule, seem to only appear at stops once *every 50 minutes*, on average. In other words, if you miss a bus, you’ll have to wait almost an hour, in most cases, to catch the next one. Yikes! This of course varies from route to route, and city to city.
The buses, on average, run to only about 9:30PM on weekdays and 8:00PM on weekends and routes start as early as 5:00AM. Oxnard seems to have the earliest and latest bus routes.
Cities that are serviced by Gold Coast Transit include Ojai, Oxnard, Port Hueneme, Ventura and the county areas in between.
