Due to COVID-19, many transit agencies throughout the Bay Area face varying degrees of financial uncertainty and must evaluate cost-cutting measures in order to remain financially viable. These are tough decisions and we want your input.
County Connection will conduct virtual meetings in the coming months to inform the public of potential service cuts. The first meeting will provide a general overview of the impact COVID-19 has had on funding levels, the current service profile and three scenarios for potential service reductions. This meeting is scheduled via Zoom on December 1st at 5pm. Subsequent public hearings are scheduled in January.
Please check this webpage on a regular basis to stay informed.
Three service reduction scenarios have been developed with incremental service cuts that would result in cost reductions of $3, $5, and $7 million annually. The selection of the scenario will depend on future financial projections.
| Scenario | Frequency Reductions | Elimination of Routes | Alignment Changes | Reduction in Hours | Reduction in Annual Costs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Scenario 1 (changes from pre-COVID service) | 4, 5, 6, 7, 27, 35, 92X, 95X, 96X | – | 6, 28, 92X | 13% | $3M |
| Scenario 2 (changes in addition to Scenario 1) | 15, 17, 93X, 98X, 99X | 91X, 97X, 315 | 15, 35 | 20% | $5M |
