Arcata and Mad River Transit System (AMRTS) is a fixed-route bus service for Arcata, California. The service is funded by California State Polytechnic University, Humboldt and offers free rides to students. Because of this relationship, Arcata has relatively reliable transit service for a city its size.
In 1974, the City Council of Arcata chose to use its allotment of SB 325 money for a public mass transit system. In April 1975, the new bus service within Arcata city limits was inaugurated and named the Arcata & Mad River Transit System.
