Trippers
Trippers operate along with the academic calendars for Desert Sands Unified School District and Palm Springs Unified School District. If the schools are not in operation the trippers are not in service. To see the school district calendars visit their respective websites below:
Tripper buses are added to certain routes to prevent overcrowding due to an increase in student ridership. Students can use this service in addition to our fixed route bus service to get to where they need to go. The trippers are not limited to students, any passengers can use this service.
SunLine's Tripper service serves Desert Sands Unified School District and Palm Springs Unified School District during their academic days in session.

FAQ
No, tripper service is conducted on the same vehicles as the regular fixed route service. Trippers are an additional service that provide extra room during peak hours when many students travel to and from school. This acts as an extra measure to alleviate overcrowding on regular fixed routes.
