New Programs
As public transit provider to one of the fastest-growing regions in the nation, Omnitrans' success depends upon its ability to plan for the future. Here are a few of the new programs and future directions for Omnitrans...

The Chino-Ontario Community-Based Transportation Plan project is being undertaken by the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) and will focus on a portion of the former San Bernardino County Agricultural Preserve annexed by the cities of Chino and Ontario. This area is generally bounded by Riverside Drive to the north, Euclid Avenue to the west and the county boundary lines on the east and south. The City of Chino’s portion of the former agricultural preserve will be developed in accordance with “The Preserve Specific Plan,” also known as “The Preserve,” while the City of Ontario’s portion of the former agricultural preserve will be developed in accordance with “The City of Ontario Sphere of Influence General Plan,” more commonly known as the “New Model Colony.”
This project provides a unique opportunity to incorporate transit planning into new communities.
