Downtown Transit Center (DTC)

DTC Customer Service Center

The DTC, located at 421 E. Weber Avenue, is Stockton’s downtown public transit hub. Nearly all RTD routes connect at the DTC, with 20 sheltered, off-street bus stops on two passenger boarding platforms, and additional stops on Channel Street and Weber Avenue.

At the on-site customer service center (open Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.), customers can get system maps and schedules, purchase fares, and make customer comments. The DTC Customer Service Center staff is available to assist you with trip planning, lost and found, and general information.

Location

Purpose

  • The DTC is the transfer point for nearly all of RTD’s routes, and serves as the regional public transit hub for residents of Stockton and San Joaquin County going to work, school, appointments, or recreation. By improving transit access to downtown businesses and government agencies, the DTC also provides a catalyst for downtown redevelopment activity.
  • The DTC building’s front elevation combines the facades from three turn-of-the-century buildings on the west (the ‘Hart & Thrift’ and ‘Bower’ Buildings) and east (the ‘Delta’ Building) ends of the building. The center elevation and all of the building behind the facades is new construction.
