Black and white photo of a bus shelter surrounded by other structures. The graffiti are the letters "OS" with large, stylized drip marks painted underneath. The letters are set above a bench with metal slats.

Continues to be appalling that there is no bus express lane on the Bay Bridge. Current TransBay #ACTransit bus is stuck in mixed traffic, is going to take 1.5 hours to do a ~20 min ride. Why do we punish transit riders by making them suffer through single occupancy vehicle traffic?
ACTransit #31 bus to the Chabot Space and science center, with 2 bike on the bike rack (they need bigger racks).
I've been waiting a long time to ride this bus. It was cancelled during the pandemic and was just reinstated this year.
It goes to the top of a hill with a lot of scenic downhill bike routes.

In 1999 I was appointed to the #ACTransit Riders Advisory Committee. I pushed through a resolution opposing wraps on windows. Didn’t go anywhere, sadly. https://urbanists.social/@otiswhite/115497211289238762

Bay Area transit ridership is still hurting — but there are bright spots

Well I was the very last passenger on the 72R ever. 😢 #ACTransit #lastride
On the last southbound 72R… #ACTransit
Today is the last day of #actransit Routes 29 and 33. I don't know how long they've been around. But tomorrow they'll be replaced by a new Route 22 and a rerouted 18 and 88. So long, old friends (*The 33 will live on in spirit as the 633, a tripper to Oakland High)
Sad to learn of Chris Peeples’ passing. #ACTransit www.actransit.org/press-release/honoring-t...
My long time friend, Chris Peeples, AC Transit director passed away in his sleep overnight.
I have known him about 35 years, before he was on the board, when he was on the staff of Oakland council member Mary Moore.
I met him through non-political friends. He was UC Santa Cruz college friends […]
The East Bay just got some good, and much-needed, transit news

UGH AC transit changes/cuts to bus lines. Do not like cuts in transit.
And here’s a question: the 20 is being renamed 30 but with no changes. why would they rename a route that isn’t changing?

Today, I picked up my pensioner pass from #ACTransit. One of the benefits of retirement from AC Transit is free bus rides.
To get there, I caught the day’s last #actransit Line 800 to transfer to BART. It was the last AC Transit trip I’ll ever have to pay for (at least for myself). It was on […]
ad on the bus saying what I put above
Cool. Every transit system should do this: "Starting on (some date I can't read) #ACTransit will start automated citations for any motorist stopping or parking in bus stops or in bus-only lanes".

AC Transit Route 200 bus which I took from the Fremont BART station to Newark
It has been a few years since I've biked over the #DumbartonBridge, but I drove to Fremont yesterday, and didn't want to drive there again. A little chilly on the way back but good to get out. On the way back I cheated and rode an #ACTransit bus part of the way […]

What do massive AC Transit service cuts even mean when a 12-minute headway bus doesn't come for 25 minutes, and the next is 47 minutes later? #actransit
no bus in oakland on alcatraz from san pablo to claremont. that’s right. no paddy wagon, no prison bus, no #actransit, no emeryville merry go round, no amtrak, no bart, no muni, no vita. can’t even catch a ride hitch hiking from the mayor. cuz i don’t think we have one.can u be mayor and in prison?
Moving on #ACTransit Board is picking a new board President. Director Shaw is nominated with McCalley as VP-- passed unanimously. New era for AC Transit leadership. Here's to more collaboration and focus on improving ridership & working conditions. Let's get moving.
Final result-- NO CENSURE. All board members to get training, and additional executive coaching to be required of Syed and made available to all. Seems like Executive Coaching is a good thing for all board members to take anyway #ACTransit
@therealjeanwalsh.bsky.social motions to reject the censure and motion to move forward with all board members. @sarahsyed.bsky.social seconds. Director Shaw asks if she can amend to add extra executive coaching just for Syed. Walsh seconds the amendment to the original motion. #ACTransit
Director McCalley asks counsel for options. Aimee Steele basically says it's the board's call. "Censure is an official reprimand in the record" #ACTransit
Director Murphy McCalley says the board should be focused on fiscal issues and "I don't question Sarah's motives at all....she's supportive of our staff and that's all a good thing...there is many things I disagree with her on, but I'm not sure this rises to the levels of censureship" #ACTransit
The @therealjeanwalsh.bsky.social is a real one a bringing the fire. "you might not like them, you might think they ask too many questions, that's not worth a censure. A general manager making half a million dollars a year should be able to handle some tough questions." #ACTransit
Director Walsh said a "closure letter" was sent to the investigator saying that the issue was settled....and then a special meeting was called on December 30th (while Director Syed was out of town) and at that special meeting, they agendized the censure. "this is weaksauce guys" #ACTransit
Director Jean Walsh said the board hired an unbiased investigator and paid $43,000 for the investigation. The investigator found no harassment or bullying. Walsh says the report had no details on policy violations and didn't single out any board member but said ALL should get training #ACTransit
The investigator specifically found that Director Sarah Syed didn't harass anyone. #ACTransit Witch hunt much?
