AC Transit Realign

Realign Service Changes Coming This Summer
After two years of community outreach, planning, and research, AC Transit's new bus network rolls out in August 2025.
Realign is AC Transit’s all-new bus network — designed to match how the East Bay travels today. Shaped by two years of community outreach and in-depth data analysis, Realign delivers better frequency with improved connections for more reliable bus lines.

Community Built
You spoke. We listened. Realign was shaped by more than 22,000 riders and East Bay residents through surveys, public meetings, and on-the-ground outreach to ensure all the communities we serve had a say in the future of AC Transit.

Driven by Equity
Realign prioritizes those who depend on transit daily — including low-income communities, seniors, and riders with disabilities — by preserving and strengthening bus lines where they’re needed most.

Backed by Data
Over two years we conducted a data-driven review of each of our bus lines. Using bus ridership patterns, travel data, and demographic studies, we mapped how people move today.

What Riders can Expect
Starting in August, the Realign Service Changes aim to deliver more reliable service, new destinations, and simplified routes. AC Transit’s all-new bus network is built with flexibility, allowing it to adapt to shifting ridership patterns and the East Bay’s evolving communities.
