Commute Collaboration
The Bus Share Program supports OPM’s commitment to sustainable transportation and aligns with our shared practices and aligns with our mutual passion for shared and innovative transportation solutions. The Oyster Point Business District is experiencing explosive growth with no end in sight. To get ahead of all the congestion this growth will bring, we are partnering with neighboring companies – like yours – to create shared commute solutions to minimize traffic congestion and alleviate employee commute stress.
WELCOME ABOARD
If you’ve recently joined the Bus Share, welcome! If you have any specific questions, please reach out to your company’s coordinator or gRide-d@gene.com. If you plan to bring a bicycle on board a Genentech transit connector shuttle, please watch this YouTube tutorial on how to properly load them onto the vehicle.

IF YOU’RE NOT A PART OF BUS SHARE YET, HERE’S HOW IT WORKS.
Genentech partners with companies in the Oyster Point Business District to offer our Commuter Bus Program to non-Genentech employees commuting into the area. Interested companies enter into a contract with Genentech and pay a monthly fee per rider. We offer this turnkey commuter bus program to companies with 1 rider to 1,000 riders. We believe it doesn’t make financial or logistical sense for every company to have a bus program, and we see more value when we work together. So, if you are ready to offer your employees an award winning bus program, with minimal planning on your end, look no further and send us a note below!
WHAT THE PROGRAM INCLUDES
- Access to 100% of our Bay Area bus routes (27 routes, 9 counties, over 200 run times and climbing).
- Top of the line coach buses that include wifi, legroom, and comfortable seats for an enjoyable ride.
- A mobile app for employees to see real time schedules, book reservations, and track their bus in real-time.
- Mapping and analysis of your employee population’s commuting needs.
