Your UC Berkeley Destination Guide gives you access to the East Bay, San Francisco, and the Peninsula. Use this handy pocket guide to learn how to get around using AC Transit. Our buses run 24 hours a day in more than two dozen cities and unincorporated areas, and we cross the Bay, San Mateo, and Dumbarton bridges. August 2016 0175-16 Welcome to Class Pass! Planning Your AC Transit Trip There are four ways to plan your AC Transit trip: Use online trip-planning tools at actransit.org, 511.org, or on Google Transit at google.com/transit. View maps and schedules on our web site at actransit.org. Pick up our printed maps and schedules from the Parking and Transportation Office at 2150 Kittredge Street. Call the AC Transit Information Center at (510) 891-4777 or call 511 (and say, “AC Transit,” then say, “Information”). Using Real-Time Departures Real-Time Departure information lets you know when the next bus will be at your stop, so you don't have to wait longer than you need to. You can access Real-Time Departures on the web, by phone or text message, or on electronic signs at select bus stops. Download an app via the Real-Time icon on your smart phone or tablet at actransit.org. Each bus stop has a Stop ID number that you can reference when you phone or text. Look for the Stop ID number on most bus stop pole signs or on the web. Visit actransit.org/realtime for more info. Printed Maps & Schedules We publish two system maps that together cover the AC Transit service area: San Pablo to Oakland, and San Leandro to Fremont. We also publish individual pocket schedules with a route map for each bus line. Using Pocket Schedules Most pocket schedules list several of the bus stops along the route, with the times the bus is expected to arrive at each stop. These stops are called “time points.” There are usually additional bus stops between the time points. Just find the time point closest to where you are starting your AC Transit trip and read down the column under the time point in order to find the time you need to be at the bus stop. Boarding the Bus Bus stops are marked with the AC Transit logo and display the bus lines that stop there. Most bus lines have stops every few blocks. Make sure you are on the correct side of the street for your direction of travel. Wait for the bus as close as possible to the bus stop pole to make it easier for the bus operator to see you. You don’t have to signal the bus, but doing so will help ensure that the operator doesn’t miss you by mistake. When the bus arrives, check the line number or letter to make sure it’s the bus you want. Stopping the Bus Request your stop by pulling the cord, pressing the button on the pole, or pressing the button above your head. The “Stop Requested” sign will light. If you are not sure when your stop will be coming up, ask the operator to let you know. Accessibility All AC Transit buses have built-in features—passenger lifts, ramps, handrails, and kneelers—that make it easier for seniors and persons with disabilities to ride. Priority seating is clearly marked on every bus with signs above or near the seats. If you are a senior or a person with a disability, you may ask the operator to remind non-disabled passengers to vacate a seat for you. Bringing Your Bicycle All AC Transit buses have a rack on the front for two or three bikes. You may load a bicycle at any time of day, with no extra fare or permit. Cyclists must load and unload their own bikes.
