The ART Costa Mesa Line, Free Bus Transportation
07.14.17
Costa Mesa now has FREE transportation to some of its hot spots off Bristol, from The Lab and The Camp to Performing Arts and connecting to local residential and business hubs.
The Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART) teamed up with the city of Costa Mesa, Travel Costa Mesa and OCTA, through a transportation grant, to expand its public transportation service with a free Costa Mesa-only line that began last month.
The ART-Costa Mesa Line is free to the public and operates daily on a fixed route schedule. It offers area businesses, employees, residents and visitors an easy and economical transportation option and is designed to reduce traffic, and enhance the dining, shopping and the arts experience in Costa Mesa.
This service transports riders on 30-passenger (CNG) Compressed Natural Gas ART vehicles along nine fixed-route stops covering South Bristol Street between South Coast Metro’s business and residential areas, South Coast Plaza, The LAB, The Camp, and Costa Mesa’s cultural arts centers.
In addition to this Costa Mesa-only service is the ART Costa Mesa/South Coast Plaza (line #22), which will continue to provide round-trip transit service between Costa Mesa to the Anaheim Resort area. Fares for line 22 are $5.50 for adults and $2 for children per day.

The Summer Nights Jazz Series starts tonight at the Casino San Clemente. Doors open at 6 p.m. with music starting at 7 p.m, allowing ample time to enjoy the ocean view Patio of the Stars, cash bar hosted by the Ruin Bar and light bites for advance purchase from Healthy Junk and Center St. Cheese Shop. Music tickets are a nominal $10/each online at brownpapertickets.com (reference “summer nights jazz”) or $10/each at the door for last minute guests.
For the inaugural night and back by popular demand is the Tim Gill Quintet, a rabble-rousing jazz group specializing in hot jazz and early swing with salutes to Louis Armstrong and Fats Waller and sure to cool the room with conversation and interplay.
The series continues every other Thursday through September 28 and features award winning and varied jazz performers including: Leonard Thompson with “jazzed” sounds of piano and organ; Ron Stout, virtuoso trumpeter belting straight ahead jazz; Josh Nelson, renown composer and jazz pianist and his band; the Danny Green Trio with Brazilian jazz favorites; and Elizabeth Lamers, songwriter and sultry jazz vocalist, a favorite at the Casino San Clemente, who is planning an exclusive CD release and signing celebration on the closing evening – details forthcoming.
