2023 Proposed Changes To Bus Service Open For Public Feedback

At the November meeting of the Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority (LAVTA) Board of Directors, planners presented survey results from the Wheels in Motion public outreach campaign, as well as the staff recommendation for a preferred bus network. The preferred bus network was selected after careful analysis of survey results and stakeholder feedback collected throughout the month of September during the Wheels in Motion campaign.

The Board of Directors, having been presented with a recommendation for a preferred bus network, will hold a Public Hearing on December 4, 2023 at 4 P.M. to obtain input regarding proposed service changes that would adjust Wheels bus frequencies to align with new BART train schedules and would restore or introduce routes to several areas that currently lack service, as follows:

Weekday service:

  • Frequency adjustments:
    • Increase service on Route 15 to run every 20 minutes during rush hours (peak), and hourly during the midday
    • Slightly decrease peak service on Routes 1, 3, 8 and 14 to run every 40 minutes, and on Routes 10R and 30R to run every 20 minutes
  • Operate Route 10R service for one additional hour (until midnight)
  • Introduce local service in Central Dublin, and Southwest Livermore every 40 minutes during extended peak hours
  • Resume hourly serv ice on Route 2 in East Dublin
  • Resume limited peak service to East Livermore on Route 11
  • Resume limited peak express service on Route 580X between Downtown Livermore and BART
  • Extend Route 70X to the Hacienda Business Park

Weekend service:

  • Increase service on Route 10R to run every 20 minutes on Saturdays and every 40 minutes on Sundays
  • Increase service on Route 30R to run every 40 minutes on Saturdays; continue to run hourly on Sundays
