In an effort to rehabilitate our aging infrastructure, VTA will continue to schedule repairs through the fall to trouble spots on the light rail system that cause our service to run at a slower pace or where equipment has reached the end of its useful life.
Like any decades-old infrastructure, upkeep and maintenance are critical. Since this past spring, VTA has been performing ongoing extensive work to keep VTA’s light rail system in a state of good repair.
Light rail service in the areas impacted by this necessary construction will be replaced by bus service or a “bus bridge” to ensure passengers can still travel to their destinations.
Below is a tentative schedule of upcoming transit impacts. Details are subject to change.
For the most current information, please visit the Light Rail Rehab page. Riders can also subscribe to Service Alerts to receive notifications about affected routes or use the Transit App to plan their trip in advance.
