The AC Transit Board has set four Realign public hearing dates in September and have opened the public comment period for the Draft Final Plan. This represents your final chance to weigh in on their new bus network!
Realign is a comprehensive assessment of every AC Transit bus line in response to the substantial shifts in ridership and commute patterns since the pandemic. Since Spring 2023, AC Transit has engaged in a multi-phased community outreach process, which helped shape the development of the Draft Final Plan, which is carefully crafted to optimize current service efficiency while ensuring that the proposed bus network adjustments are possible with their existing labor force.
The Draft Final Plan suggests several types of changes to their service, including re-routing bus lines, combining, or eliminating others, as well as proposing frequency and service hour adjustments.
The public comment period closes on September 11. All written comments received before the close of the final hearing will be considered and included in the official record. Learn more about the Draft Final Plan and submit comments online here.
AC Transit Staff will also be available at public and community events through September 11. Find an event near you here.
Informational Realign books are now available for review! Comment cards are also available so you can provide feedback about your route. Visit one of the local libraries in our "Printed Copy Locations" list here.
