Vine Transit is kicking off the New Year by expanding bus services in Napa County. Route A, which serves Browns Valley and Napa High School, has returned with fixed-route service. Additionally, riders will now have direct access to the Napa County Soscol Campus in South Napa via Route G. There are minor schedule changes on Route B, Route 10 and Route 29. The new schedule and services will launch on Sunday, Jan. 12, 2025.
“We regularly re-examine our schedules and routes to ensure we are meeting the needs of our communities and riders,” said Vine Transit Manager Rebecca Schenck. “By aligning our stops with the Napa High bell schedule, we can now better serve our students and the whole Browns Valley neighborhood.”
Like many public transportation systems, during the pandemic Vine Transit switched several of its City of Napa routes to on-demand services, including Route A. As more regular ridership returned, Vine has transferred back to offering regular fixed-route services, available on Route A between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
Vine Transit’s new Route A serving Browns Valley and Napa Valley High.
Vine Transit’s Route G will expand travel to the Napa County Soscol Campus on Napa Vallejo Highway, which houses the Napa County Re-Entry Facility and other county buildings. The new stop creates a direct route between the Soscol Campus, Napa County Courthouse on Third Street and the Health and Human Services Division on Corporate Drive, for seamless travel between these critical government services.
“This new stop was developed in partnership with the county, in an effort to give Napa County residents and employees a convenient and reliable commuting option when moving between County campuses,” Schenck said.
Additionally, slight schedule changes were made on Route B, Route 10 and Route 29 — riders should check the new service schedules online.
Vine Transit will be updating its schedule beginning on Sunday August 11, 2024. You can download or view a PDF of the newly designed brochure below.
The main schedule changes include: • Route B will have three new bus stops on the east side of Laurel Street • Route C will have one additional trip leaving the transit center at 6:30pm • Route G will extend its route to serve the Napa Valley College and Health & Human Services on weekdays • Route G, 10, 11 and 21 will stop at the newly constructed northbound stop at the Napa Valley College on all northbound trips • Route 11X will have an additional stop at Devlin Road at Airport Road • Route 29 will update its schedule to improve transfers to San Francisco-bound BART trains, as well as to Route 10 at the Redwood Park & Ride • The American Canyon & St Helena School trippers will resume operations
The freshly designed schedule brochure combines the regional and local maps into one foldable brochure that quickly gives riders a visual of all the places Vine Transit travels. Click the + button to zoom in and see the newly designed maps and timetables.

Vine Transit and the Napa Valley Transportation Authority are helping Napa County residents and visitors get to the San Francisco Airport by supporting a new private shuttle service. Wine Country Airporter recently began operations with pick up/drop off locations at the Napa Valley Marriot and Vine Transit’s bus stop at the American Canyon Post Office (on Crawford Way).
NVTA/Vine Transit does not operate this service, but is helping to clear congestion on our highways by making it easier for travelers to access the airport without a car. Those traveling to and from SFO can take a Vine Transit bus to the Redwood Park and Ride across from the Marriot in Napa, or to the American Canyon Post Office bus stop, then hop on the Wine Country Airporter shuttle to SFO.
Vine Transit fares range from $0.80 to $5.50, depending on the rider and the route — find local bus schedules at VineTransit.com. Wine Country Airporter rates range from $29-$39 for children and $59 to $69 for adults (free for kids under 2). Find schedules and more at winecountryairporter.com.
