Come with me for a peek at last week’s Transit Month’s annual Ride Along & Happy Hour with Transit CEOs.
Great event! Always love to highlight the ways transit connects the Bay!
Thanks for joining us for All Aboard with Transit CEOs last Friday!

All Aboard with Transit CEOs was a multimodal ride-along and happy hour with local transit CEOs, transit enthusiasts, and transit staff that make these systems possible.

🚍✨ Curious about what’s happening with Bay Area transit? From Transit Month celebrations to agencies working together on schedules—and even SB 63, a new bill that could be a lifeline for regional public transit—there’s a lot in motion. KPIX has the breakdown 🎥: www.cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco...
Bay Area Transit Month comes as agencies face rising ridership, looming deficits
Ridership is recovering for Muni and public transit systems across the board. But it's happening slowly, and the agencies are facing massive budget shortfalls.

We’re out for the Pleasant Hill Community Service Day. For our part, we’ve teamed up with the Food Bank of Contra Costa and Solano to “Fill The Bus” (with non-perishable, shelf-stable food).
Our GM, Bill Churchill, joined passengers and other industry leaders for All Aboard with Transit CEOs on Friday!  The trip was multimodal and was such a great way to highlight public transit throughout the Bay!
Come with County Connection to a Transportation Fair at the Concord Senior Citizens Center.

To clarify, Tap and Ride payments are for BART only. Maybe something we can rollout in the future, but for now, have you Clipper card/app handy when boarding County Connection.
Very excited for our friends at Bay Area Rapid Transit for introducing Tap and Ride, starting tomorrow on BART. Check it out: bart.gov/contactless
