'''Emery Go-Round''' is a [[Free public transport|fare-free]] public bus system serving [[Emeryville, California]], a city in the [[East Bay]] region of the [[San Francisco Bay Area]]. Service is funded primarily by commercial property owners through a citywide [[Transportation improvement district|transportation business improvement district]].<ref>[https://emerygoround.com/about-us/ Emery Go-Round - About Us]</ref> The name, a play on the term [[merry-go-round]], is a reference to both Emeryville founder Joseph Stickney Emery and the bus routes, which are loops beginning and ending at [[MacArthur station (BART)|MacArthur BART Station]] in the adjacent city of [[Oakland, California|Oakland]].

== Services ==
As of 2024, Emery Go-Round operates two fixed routes: Shellmound-Powell and Hollis. <!-- Multiple routes were discontinued following reduced ridership after COVID-19. --> Service operates daily with 15-minute frequency, except on selected holidays, with reduced service levels on weekends and selected additional holidays. 

Both routes are loops, beginning and ending at [[MacArthur (BART station)|MacArthur BART Station]] in Oakland. The Shellmound-Powell route runs concurrently with [[AC Transit]]'s Line 57 (fare required) from [[Emeryville Public Market]] to MacArthur BART.
