Atomic City Transit (ACT) is pleased to announce a new Saturday service pilot program with ACT Ride. For thirteen Saturdays from August 2 to October 25, 2025, riders can request same-day service from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Rides may be reserved through the free ACT Ride app, available for download on Google Play or the App Store, or by calling 505-661-RIDE (7433).

The pilot program expands upon the existing weekday early morning and evening on-demand ACT Ride service, offering residents and visitors greater access to local businesses, events and amenities they may not have been able to access previously. ACT is excited to test this innovative transportation solution, assess the effectiveness of the pilot program and its potential for broader implementation.

Key features of the Saturday pilot program include:

  • ACT Ride: Passengers can request door-to-door rides within the designated service areas of Los Alamos Townsite and White Rock. View the online guide App Walkthrough to learn more about ACT Ride.
  • Flexible booking: Riders can make same-day requests on a first-come, first-served basis, as well as add additional riders and schedule a trip for later in the day
  • Ride-share approach: ACT Ride operates as a ride-share service, meaning passengers may travel with other individuals going to similar destinations.
  • Increased mobility: This new pilot program aims to increase Saturday access to transportation for residents, when traditional bus service is not provided.
