Sister Company: Futura Bus Net, Inc. - provides ticket sales Purpose of bus service: Our service currently connects travelers between the San Diego/Tijuana area directly through to Los Angeles. The purpose of establishing a terminal in Santa Ana is to reduce the impact of our Shuttle service from our Los Angeles hub and to connect travelers to and from Orange County with our current routes. Connecting SARTC would reduce the burden on our Orange County customers from having to drive to our Los Angeles hub in order to get to their desired destination. Opening a terminal in SARTC would permit more customers to utilize our services as well as providing an additional stop to our current routes. We provide bus service to our more distant locations and Shuttle Service throughout Southern California. Our Shuttle Service departs hourly to provide door-to-door service to our Southern California customers. Customers can be picked up at the SARTC and take a trip to San Diego and either arrive at the San Diego terminal as a final destination or be transported directly to their hotel or residence within certain parameters. Customers can arrive at SARTC and we would transport them directly to their hotel or residence in Orange County. We currently operate the most crossed border in the world, where 25,000 pedestrians cross near our Transit Center in San Ysidro/Tijuana. Many of these pedestrians utilize our Shuttle Service to travel to Los Angeles and Orange Counties.
