== COVID-19 Response == In April 2020, evening trips on all lines and weekend service on lines 2 and 4 were discontinued due to reduced demand and staffing levels as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.<ref>{{Cite web|date=2020-04-04|title=RCTA Adapts to COVID-19 - Updated April 4, 2020|url=http://redwoodcoasttransit.org/2020/04/covid-19/|access-date=2020-10-08|website=Redwood Coast Transit Authority|language=en-US}}</ref> On March 23, 2020, RCT eliminated fare collection to promote social distancing between passengers and operators, however this led to a spike in non-essential trips and operator complaints about crowded buses which lead RCT to resume fare collection in early April 2020. <ref>{{Cite web|title=For Redwood Coast Transit, Operating Through COVID-19 Has Been a Roller Coaster|url=https://wildrivers.lostcoastoutpost.com/2020/apr/16/redwood-coast-transit-operating-through-covid-19-h/|access-date=2020-10-08|website=Wild Rivers Outpost|language=en}}</ref>
