Core Restructure Concepts

Clayton, Concord, Pleasant Hill, Walnut Creek

Core Service Proposed Map

• Streamline Route 19 to use Concord Ave. instead of going to Concord BART via Sun Valley Mall.
• Streamline Route 9 by eliminating routing to JFK, Patterson Blvd., and Oak Park Blvd.
• Realign Route 18 to service Patterson Blvd., and Oak Park Blvd. and adjust trip times to meet school bell times; consider routing along Taylor Blvd. instead of Viking Dr.
• Create a new alignment for Route 10 to turn around at Washington/Michigan instead of the Ayers Rd./Kirker Pass loop. End 50% of peak trips at this loop that currently continues on to Marsh Creek Rd. in Clayton. Only one quarter of the ridership rides past Kirker Pass
• Extend Route 14 to Walnut Creek BART to expand access to jobs from the Monument Corridor. Increase frequencies to every 30 minutes.
• Terminate Route 15 at Pleasant Hill BART (it will no longer service Walnut Creek BART, this will be covered by Route 14
• Eliminate Route 1M and Route 2 due to low ridership and poor efficiency
• Realign Route 95X to exit Hwy. 680 at S. Main St., to provide direct access to Downtown Walnut Creek from the south and avoid congestion
• Eliminate Route 301 to Rossmoor due to low ridership
• Extend 311 to John Muir Hospital to cover the Ygnacio Valley Rd. portion of 301
• Increase frequency on Route 4 from 15 minutes to 12 minutes
• Adjust times, where possible, on local routes to meet school bell times in the Pleasant Hill area
• Eliminate Route 315 due to low ridership

Proposed Fare Modification

The last time fares were increased was in 2009, nearly ten (10) years ago. The current proposal will increase the one-way cash fare to $2.50 (for local and express routes) and eliminate paper passes.  However, a one-way fare on Clipper will remain at $2.00 and passengers will continue to benefit from the $3.75 Day Pass and Monthly Local/Express Passes, all available on Clipper.  For complete details of all changes, follow the link below.
