A visionary proposal for a better, more equitable bus network serving all of Alameda County
Explore the VisionThis proposal presents a comprehensive reimagining of the AC Transit bus network. Building upon the foundation of the original Realign project, we address critical shortcomings to create a system that is more equitable, efficient, and user-friendly for all of Alameda County.
The current AC Transit Realign proposal has structural flaws that need immediate improvement before implementation.
Routes like the 22 and 88 currently follow confusing patterns that discourage ridership compared to alternatives.
While some routes (31) saw improvements, critical corridors (7, 72L) were actively worsened in previous drafts.
Major regional parks like Lake Chabot and Oakland Zoo remain inaccessible by transit on weekends.
Transforming Central Alameda County into a legible grid of high-frequency routes.
Prioritizing frequency improvements specifically within equity priority neighborhoods.
Reducing redundant parallel service to reinvest resources where they are needed most.
Establishing reliable connections to regional parks and recreation centers.
Seamless integration with BART and other regional transit agencies.
