AC Transit – LA Transbay bus

I have been using this service for about 4 years, until a few months ago it was a consistently outstanding service (at least early in the morning, before 6:30 am) — it was rarely crowded, the driver arrived on time 95% of the time, and it was more comfortable than riding BART. It still has an excellent on-​time arrival performance early in the morning (the return trips in the afternoon are often delayed due to heavy traffic on I-​80) but the bus is getting TOO CROWDED. AC transit needs to add more capacity in the early morning weekday hours.

The buses are new and clean! I highly recommend the LA bus line over driving, carpool, Bart, and etc. It’s a straight shot from Richmond to San Francisco. Get on the bus, take a nap, next thing you know. you are in SF and vice versa.

This is a very under appreciated, under utilized form of transportation. I have used this bus for years and it is so much faster, cleaner, and more comfortable than BART.
Don’t get me wrong BART is a great service for the bay area, but I by far prefer the Transbay.

LA bus I love ya. You’re always on time, gets me out of SF in a Jiffy. I love an express bus that gets me half way home. Cheap too $ 3.50 and so much better and brighter than BART. The bus also offers free WiFi and operates a nice rush hour schedule. Try it you’ll like it.
