To combat traffic and parking on campus, City College has bought two new vans for its vanpool program for teachers and other staff.
The vanpool is set to start June 1. It will serve people living in Santa Maria and Lompoc to the north, and Ventura and Ojai to the south. The college will pay for the van the first year, while officials gauge interest and determine the total cost of the program, said transportation coordinator Shawn Tallant.
Costs are $100 a month and $6 for a single round trip.
Tallant also invited people living in other communities interested in starting a vanpool to contact him.
