More detail on the timing of future service changes will be made available as we approach these planned dates. Note that SamTrans adjusts service up to four times per year (February, June, August and November). However, the timing of these phases is dependent on SamTrans’ available number of bus operators and will require us to hire and train additional staff to deliver the service improvements. SamTrans strives to deliver these improvements as soon as possible. When will these additional changes be made? More detail on the changes for each route can be found in appendix E of the final Reimagine SamTrans plan, available for download from this webpage: Additional approved changes, including new routes, frequency enhancements, and expanded hours and days of service, will occur in future phases.Īn overview of the Phase 1 and Future Phase changes for each route is available below. Phase 1 of implementing Reimagine SamTransoccurred in August 2022 and included only some of the changes approved in the full plan. Reimagine SamTrans calls for more bus service in San Mateo County. You may be asking, what changes are still to come for my route? Morning service on school-oriented Routes 85 and 87 has been discontinued. In some cases, this would result in a longer ride for some students, but service to almost all areas with existing ridership is still available.Įliminated Routes: Local Route 140 was eliminated and replaced by service on Routes 141 and 142. In each case, two existing school-oriented routes became one route that serves more neighborhoods to the same schools. SamTrans consolidated school-oriented Routes 39, 55, 95 and 84 into Routes 37, 53, 61 and 83, respectively. Local Routes 251 and 256 were consolidated into a revised Route 251. Existing school-oriented service on Routes 110, 112, 130, 140, 141, 250, 251, 278 and 286 will continue to be provided on the following new Routes 10, 12, 30, 40, 41, 42, 50, 51, 78 and 86.Ĭonsolidated Routes: Local Routes 274, 275 and 278 were consolidated into Route 278. This community has a variety of amenities and features including: convenient on-site parking options, fitness programs, and a state-of-the-art fitness center. New Routes: New local Route 142 now serves some areas previously served by Routes 140 and 141. We are now using this valuable input to implement a new, streamlined bus network with: This new network was crafted after careful consideration of what we heard from the public, from over 200 outreach meetings and thousands of comments and survey responses over the course of two and a half years. In March 2022, the SamTrans Board of Directors approved a set of changes to the SamTrans bus network through a project known as Reimagine SamTrans.
