CityBus to return to Riehle Plaza on Monday

CityBus service will return to Riehle Plaza beginning Monday, July 19.

For nearly two years, the buses have been stopping for transfers along Third Street while construction of the Combined Sewer Overflow was underway.

Beginning Monday, bus service will return to the Downtown Transfer Center at the corner of 2nd and Ferry streets at Riehle Plaza. Bus routes 1B, 3B (Saturday only), 4A and 4B will stop along the east side of the transfer island. Bus routes 1A, 2A, 2B, 3A, and 7 will stop along the west side of the transfer island. Bus routes 6A and 6B will stop along 2nd street in front of the plaza. See http://www.gocitybus.com/regularroutes/downtownmap.htm for a map showing the operation of buses downtown.

The customer service office inside of Riehle Plaza, which remained open during the two year construction project, will continue to be open and available to CityBus riders. Services include sale of bus passes and tokens and general customer service.

CityBus thanks our riders for your patience during this very long project. We look forward to resuming service at Riehle Plaza.
