Temporary Service Reduction We will be temporarily reducing weekday service on some bus lines starting January 10 due to a worker shortage.

Starting January 10, 2022, 20 of our 84 bus lines will run less frequently on weekdays due to a shortage of bus operators and other workers.

Temporarily reducing service to match our staffing levels means that buses will run more true to schedule and riders will encounter far fewer canceled buses. We know you depend on us and we make this move only after exhausting all other options.

We hope service will return to normal levels soon but we do not have an estimate on when that will happen. We need to hire and train more bus operators before we’re able to return to regular service levels.

Affected lines 4, 8, 12, 15, 17, 21, 30, 33, 35, 52, 54, 56, 62, 67, 70, 71, 75, 76, 77, 78
