The following cities are served: Sacramento, West Sacramento, Southport, Davis, Woodland, Cache Creek, Madison, Esparto, Capay, Knights Landing, Dunnigan, Yolo, Vacaville.[3]
Most regular routes run hourly, 5–7 days a week. Commute and express routes run only at peak times in the mornings and evenings, Monday-Friday.
Many rural and commuter routes were reduced or suspended at the onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic and in 2022, as part of the YoloGo Comprehensive Operational Analysis, many of these cuts were made permanent as the new service plan favored increased headways on routes 42A and 42B and the launch of new microtransit offerings at the expense of fixed route coverage.
On Demand "YOUR Ride Microtransit" service is available to replace fixed route service to the communities of Winters and Knights Landing that was eliminated under the YoloGo COA.
BeeLine On Demand Transit was also launched in June 2023 to replace lost service for trips within the city of Woodland.
