(Update: the change of terminal point on Line 18 has been delayed until lane markings can be repainted on Mountain Blvd. Until that time, the terminal point will remain on Medau Pl. The other minor schedule changes will go forward.)
Buses will begin and end their trips at a different stop on the Line 18 loop in Montclair. The new terminal point will be on Mountain Blvd. at Moraga Ave., in front of Safeway. Also, minor schedule adjustments have been made on all parts of the line.
Route changed to leave the E. E. Cleveland Senior Center and travel via MacArthur Blvd., 73rd Ave., Hegenberger Rd., Doolittle Dr., Otis Dr. and Park St. to Alameda Towne Center. Buses will return to Palo Vista Gardens via Park St., Otis St., Doolittle Dr., Hegenberger Rd., San Leandro Blvd., and Seminary Ave. Line 356 service on the following streets has been eliminated: High St., Encinal Ave., 82nd Ave., 81st Ave., Park St. between Encinal Ave. and Otis Dr., San Leandro Blvd. between High St. and Seminary Ave., and San Leandro Blvd. between 82nd Ave. and Hegenberger Rd.
The first weekday trip toward San Francisco will operate five minutes earlier. The trip will depart Fernside Blvd. & Versailles Ave. at 5:18 a.m. instead of 5:23 a.m., and all subsequent times on this trip are also five minutes earlier.
No new timetable will be printed for this change. Schedules on the Internet and on the posted schedule signs will be correct.
New schedules and route maps will be available at www.actransit.org by June 8. Look for new pocket timetables (except for lines 1, 640, 680, 682, and O) on your bus one to two weeks before June 21. For specific questions, call 511 and say, "AC Transit."
