Public Transportation

Beat the traffic and go green by taking the bus or Green Line trolley to the SDSU Transit Center. These public transportation routes connect the university to destinations throughout greater San Diego, including the airport, train station and Snapdragon Stadium. If you have never ridden before, the Bus and Trolley Rider's Guide offers helpful tips as you plan your trip.

Fares

Bus and trolley fares vary depending on routes and passenger type, and exact fare is required. Some trolley ticket machines accept only $1 or $5 bills, and some accept credit/debit cards. The Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) offers Family Weekend Specials where up to two children age 5 and under ride free with any paying passenger on all MTS routes. Get detailed ticket information.
