Big Blue Bus 3-27-2022


Service Changes Begin March 27, 2022

Beginning Sunday, March 27, we're making schedule changes on thirteen (13) routes.

Like most employers, Big Blue Bus remains challenged by the nationwide labor shortage. Until we are fully staffed, you may experience some service delays and cancellations. For this, we're sorry. We know you depend on us, and we're committed to keeping you moving safely and efficiently.

To see the most up-to-date travel information, visit bigbluebus.com/servicealerts or download the Transit app. Our team is also available Monday - Friday, 7:30am - 5pm, to help you get where you're going. Give us a call at 310-451-5444.

Reminder: Big Blue Bus has temporarily discontinued acceptance of cash and tokens on board. Instead, customers must make contactless fare payments with TAP or a mobile ticket.
