Long Beach Transit (LBT) is the operator of public transit bus and ferry services in Long Beach, California and its surrounding cities. Long Beach Transit operates 37 bus routes, serving the Gateway Cities region of Los Angeles County. In addition to its bus services, LBT contracts with Catalina Express for the operation of two water taxi routes, and organizes the Dial-A-Lift paratransit service.
Long Beach Transit services are operated by the Long Beach Public Transportation Company, a nonprofit corporation controlled by the City of Long Beach. The system is funded in part by state tax revenue distributed by the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority. In 2023, the system had a ridership of 17,780,100, or about 60,700 per weekday as of the third quarter of 2024.
The central hub of the system is the Long Beach Transit Mall, located along 1st Street in downtown Long Beach. The Transit Mall is the southern terminus of the A Line light rail service, operated by Metro. Long Beach Transit services also connect to Torrance Transit, LADOT Commuter Express, Metro Bus, and OC Bus services. Other major destinations served by Long Beach Transit include Long Beach Airport, California State University Long Beach, CSU Dominguez Hills, and Los Cerritos Center.
Services
Long Beach Transit operates its core local services in Long Beach, its enclave Signal Hill, and the nearby cities of Carson, Cerritos, Compton, Lakewood, Paramount, and Seal Beach. Commuter service operates on weekdays in the peak direction from Long Beach to UCLA, and limited special-event service is provided to Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson on LA Galaxy game days. The free Passport route serves Downtown Long Beach, connecting popular tourist destinations.

Fares
Long Beach Transit accepts cash and TAP cards for fare payment on buses. Discounted fares are available to seniors, individuals with disabilities, and CSU Long Beach students. Long Beach Unified School District and Long Beach City College students ride LBT buses for free with a GoPass TAP card.
Fare collection was suspended at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, resuming in September 2021. The cost for the fair per ride, per person, is $1.25.
Bus fleet
As of 2024, Long Beach Transit's fleet is composed of mostly New Flyer buses, which are the GE40LF, GE40LFA, XN40 and XN60 models. It also has a large number of Gillig BRT+ models, a decreasing number of New Flyer D40LF models, and one Prévost coach used for charters. It also uses the battery-powered BYD K9 and BYD K9M buses, as well as the relatively new New Flyer XE35.
Long Beach Transit has had several major firsts. It was the first agency to:
Operate the General Motors RTS bus in the late 1970s, in addition to other variants
Operate the first gasoline-electric buses in the world
Use the first Gillig bus powered by CNG
The buses have four-digit numbers, of which the first two digits represent the year the bus was put into service. Buses numbered 90## (the ## representing number in fleet) entered service in the 1990s, 20## - 29## entered service in the 2000s, and 12## - 18## entered service in the 2010s.
Long Beach Transit buses are operated out of 2 yards:
