AC Transit Updates Bus Network, Take Our Survey
AC Transit is reviewing and updating where, when, and how buses move throughout our service area. We are launching a top-to-bottom analysis of the system because travel patterns have not only changed in the wake of the pandemic, but we also face significant budget challenges.
We are starting with a survey to help us understand what’s important to you. Visit our project website for more information and to take the survey!
