Ride UPTD and Let's GO

At UPTD, we believe public transit should be a lift, not a burden. That’s why we’ve rebuilt this agency from the ground up, restoring trust, tightening operations, and putting the focus where it belongs: on serving the People with purpose. We’re not just connecting stops on a route. We’re connecting lives, lifting barriers, and building something better for the Umpqua Valley. Through reliable service, real transparency, and a commitment to common sense, UPTD is proving what government can be when it’s run with common sense and integrity. This is transit that rises to meet the moment. This is moving UPTD.
