WestCAT provides local and express service to Pinole, Hercules, and unincorporated areas of Montalvin Manor, Tara Hills, Bayview, Rodeo, Crockett, and Port Costa, plus regional service to Richmond, Martinez, and San Francisco.
This year WestCAT is celebrating 40 years. The Western Contra Costa County Transit (WCCTA) was established in August 1977 as a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement between the County of Contra Costa and the cities of Hercules and Pinole. The agency was created with the purpose of owning, operating and administering a public transportation system serving the area between the Richmond/El Sobrante border to the west and the Al Zampa Memorial bridge to the east. WCCTA is governed by a 7-member Board of Directors and supported by professional staff. The two cities of Pinole and Hercules are each represented by two members, while the unincorporated communities of Crockett, Rodeo, and MonTaraBay each have one representative, appointed by the Contra Costa Board of Supervisors.
To provide reliable, cost-effective mobility that meets the highest standards in safety and contributes to the quality of life for residents of West Contra Costa County.
