Anaheim Resort Transportation (ART), established in 1998 as the Anaheim Transportation Network (ATN)[2] and formerly known as Anaheim Resort Transit,[5][12] is a mass transportation provider in the Anaheim Resort area[5] and its environs[4] in Orange County, California, United States. ART uses a fleet of vehicles, including tourist trolleys,[5] to provide access to hotels, malls, and tourist-related enterprises, which are the main destinations connected by the system.[13] In 2022, the system had a ridership of 7,840,200, or about 22,300 per weekday as of the third quarter of 2023.

In 2005, Citizens Against Government Waste criticized an earmark for ART from the United States Congress as wasteful spending.[14]

In 2010, Disney contracted with ART to run shuttles from a Disney-owned parking lot and all stations to the Disneyland Resort.[5][15]

Governance

ART is owned by the Anaheim Transportation Network, a quasi-government agency[5] organized as a nonprofit corporation.[16] Its board of directors is made up of representatives from hotels, local government, tourist attractions, and other businesses in the Anaheim Resort and Platinum Triangle.[17] Diana Kotler is the executive director of the organization.[11][17]
