Two Bus Stops At Walnut Creek BART Station Will Be Relocated.

CONCORD, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 5, 1998--Effective Monday, Nov. 9, 1998 the Route 102 bus stop to Trotter Way and the Route 115 bus stop will be relocated.

The Route 102 (Trotter Way) will relocate to the Route 115 location, and the Route 115 bus stop will relocate to the old BART Express location in the front of the station entrance. This relocation of bus stops is taking place at the request of BART to improve auto flow in and out of the station. The area under the BART tracks where the Route 102 currently stops will be open to two-way auto traffic. BART will install new stop signs and make appropriate road markings. This change will now allow automobiles to exit the station on to California Blvd. from the west side of the BART station.

Walnut Creek BART station is one of the busiest stations with nine bus routes providing service. A new station map will be posted in the BART station and County Connection will post detour signs at the affected stops. "While these changes concern County Connection, we will evaluate the impact on our on-time performance, as well as safety issues after a six month period," said Rick Ramacier, General Manager of County Connection.

For more information on these changes, or any routes and scheduling information, please stop by the County Connection Transportation Center at the Walnut Creek BART station, or call 925/676-7500.
