VTA Bus Service Changes Effective Today

2011-08-13 10.06.46

Today, the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) enacted numerous bus service changes throughout Silicon Valley.

One of the key changes involves the 10 Airport Shuttle between Santa Clara Caltrain Station, San Jose Airport, and the Metro/Airport light rail station. One common complaint passengers had was the shuttle made poor connections between light rail and Caltrain. (That is, the shuttle arrived at each stop just as the train left the station, meaning passengers would have to wait up to 15 minutes for the next light rail train, or up to an hour on weekends for Caltrain.) One of the changes VTA made was to improve those connections.

While this is good news, could better be done for the 10 Airport Shuttle? After 7:30pm and on weekends the shuttle runs every 30 minutes. If that’s a concern to you, make sure to write to VTA about it.

Two Transit Guides Revised

For this coming Farmers’ Market season in Silicon Valley, the Farmers’ Market transit guide has been revised. It now features more accurate Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) bus & light rail options. Information for Moveable Feast will be made available in a separate page, currently a work in progress.

Also, the Mobile Apps page was revised to point to the correct link for NextVTA on Android.

Enjoy!
