Bus Route/ Amtrak / Greyhound
The Route 4 B line bus picks up next to our house and runs to the downtown transit center where it connects to all other Chico B line bus routes. There are Bline bus routes that go to Paradise, Oroville, and Gridley. We are knowledgeable of the majority of these routes- we grew up in Chico and spent many years relying on the bus to get all around town! If you are planning to travel by city bus and need assistance or any have questions about routes we are happy to help! Website for Chico city bus is www.blinetransit.com
We are located 1.6 miles from the Amtrak / Greyhound station.
