JAC (Jump Around Carson) is Carson City, Nevada’s public transit system serving the community with a fleet of bright green and purple buses that feature a sleek, hopping jackrabbit (a Northern Nevada icon). JAC began operating in October 2005 and is governed by the Carson City Regional Transportation Commission. The JAC system features the JAC fixed route system as well as JAC Assist, a curb-to-curb program that provides transportation for eligible persons with disabilities.
Ridership continues to grow as residents discover the convenience and value of the bus system for going to work, school, shopping, medical appointments and recreation facilities. Strategically placed stops throughout the community make it easy for passengers to conveniently visit a number of the city’s most popular destinations. Fares are only $1.00 per one-way trip for adults; and seniors, persons with disabilities and youth may ride for only $0.50 per one-way trip.
Detour List
JAC makes every effort to operate as scheduled, but schedules may vary due to weather, traffic or other conditions, including construction. If construction or special events should affect any of JAC’s routes, detours will be listed on the JAC Home page. Check back occasionally to see if any construction detours may affect your trip. Please understand the start and end times of the detours may change without notice due to construction or other delays.
Weather Alert
Since JAC operates at the base of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the buses are equipped with chains to safely navigate snowy conditions. However, please be advised that bus service may be delayed without notice due to snow and/or icy conditions. We appreciate your understanding.
