SANTA MARIA, Calif. – The Santa Maria Regional Transit will be introducing an additional service change to bus route 8 to serve the Northern Branch Jail beginning in September, according to the city of Santa Maria.

Route 8 will begin to serve the Santa Barbara County Northern Branch Jail on Black Road on weekends only.

The weekend service hours are from 8:45 a.m. to 6:13 p.m.
