OC Bus

iShuttle

The bright green and blue iShuttles are hard to miss as they zip around the streets of Irvine. They help commuters complete that critical first and last mile to and from work, home and Metrolink stations in both Irvine and Tustin.

We’re waiting for you at the Metrolink station!

It is not a coincidence that you’ll find iShuttles waiting when you arrive in Tustin and Irvine on Metrolink. We’re timed to meet your train, even wait 15 minutes if it’s running late, and get you to work. Two new routes have been added to expand service and provide additional coverage to residential communities and places of employment.

Two routes serving Irvine Business Complex

The iShuttle offers two routes from the Tustin Metrolink Station serving the Irvine Business Complex area. Specific iShuttle stops are placed near major employment, retail and residential areas, including a stop at John Wayne Airport. Routes operate during morning and afternoon commute times. Download a route brochure below for specific time schedules and details.

About the Tustin Station

Two iShuttle routes start from the Tustin Station with pick-up areas, or docks, located just south of the platforms. Buses will wait up to 15 minutes for Metrolink trains that are delayed. The station is located at the Edinger and Jamboree.
