'''Unitrans''' is the transit system which operates in and around the campus of the [[University of California, Davis]]. It takes its name from an abbreviation of the words "University Transport".  Excepting several managerial and maintenance positions, Unitrans is managed and operated entirely by students of the [[University of California, Davis]] who usually work part-time while attending school. The system is well known throughout the area for its use of several distinctive ex-[[London Buses|Transport for London]] [[double-decker bus]]es, as well as its fleet of modern [[Compressed natural gas|natural gas]] single-decks. The system has 18 weekday, 1 school-centered and 6 weekend routes. Current fares are $1.50 for the general public and included in student fees for undergraduate University attendees.<ref name="Unitrans website">[http://www.unitrans.com/about/ About Unitrans – A Bit of Unitrans History], ''unitrans.com'', retrieved on 2006-04-20</ref> Unitrans is one of a small number of transit systems in the United States to operate double deck buses in regular (non-sightseeing) service (the others include [[The Deuce (transit bus service)|The Deuce]] in [[Las Vegas, Nevada]], [[Antelope Valley Transit Authority]] in [[Lancaster, CA|Lancaster]]/[[Palmdale, CA|Palmdale]], [[California]], [[Foothill Transit]] in [[San Gabriel Valley]], California, [[SLO Transit]] in [[San Luis Obispo]], [[AC Transit]] in [[Alameda County, California]], [[AppalCart|AppalCART]] in [[Boone, North Carolina|Boone]], [[North Carolina]], and [[Community Transit]] in [[Snohomish County, Washington]]).
