Starting April 1, the J & W lines will operate every 20 minutes between 12:10 PM and 6:00 PM to help alleviate afternoon crowding and get you to/from campus more conveniently! A new Silo departure is added at 0:50 minutes after the hour on both lines. There are no changes to any other bus schedules or trips.

 

In addition, a new morning Z Express bus will start operating when drivers are available. The new Z Express bus will pick up customers at 5th Street at Cantrill/Greystone Apartments (#072) and provide non-stop service to UC Davis campus on Monday-Thursday. When drivers are available, this express bus will depart promptly from stop #072 at 7:21 AM (Mon.-Thurs.), 8:21 AM (Mon.-Thurs.), 9:26 AM (Mon. & Wed.) and 9:56 AM (Tues. & Thurs.). The regular Z line bus will continue to serve 5th Street at Cantrill/Greystone Apartments (#072) as scheduled and provide service to all scheduled stops.
