Wheels Announces Service Changes to Key Routes in the Tri-Valley
Wheels is a service of the Livermore Amador Valley Transit Authority (LAVTA) and provides public transportation for the Tri-Valley communities of Dublin, Livermore, and Pleasanton, California. With easy connections to San Francisco via BART, Wheels is a convenient way to travel and an excellent way to build a cleaner, healthier, and less congested community.
Revised Route 202 and Newly Created Route 201
Effective February 13, 2010, LAVTA will make adjustments to key Wheels routes in the Tri-Valley. Riders are encouraged to review the schedules of their regular routes, as most timetables have changed. These changes will help customers connect to other routes more easily and efficiently. As first reported on September 28, 2009, Route 202 has been modified to serve East Dublin primarily on Central Parkway and Dublin Boulevard. The route will operate one morning and one afternoon trip to Dublin High School on school days only. In addition to a more streamlined Route 202, a new route has been created to serve the growing eastern Dublin population better. Route 201 will operate one morning and one afternoon trip from Fallon Road in East Dublin to Dublin High School on school days only. Other important changes include:
- Local routes in the Dublin/Pleasanton area have been adjusted to connect better with the current Saturday and Sunday BART schedules.
- Route 10′s weekday schedule has been adjusted to improve service reliability. Saturday and Sunday schedules will offer better connections to BART. Local routes in the Livermore area have been modified to connect better with the new Route 10 schedules.
- Route 12′s weekday schedule has been adjusted to improve service reliability. Route 12 may experience additional future delays and reroutes near Isabel Avenue in Livermore due to the construction of the new Interstate 580/Isabel Avenue interchange. The Saturday schedule has been revised to provide better connections to BART.
- Route 70′s schedule has been adjusted to provide better service reliability.
The new Wheels Rider’s Guide will be available soon aboard Wheels buses, at the Livermore Transit Center, and at all public libraries in the Tri-Valley. Riders may preview the new schedules online at www.wheelsbus.com. For more information, please call customer service at (925) 455-7500.

looking at the route 201 and 202, why can’t they share at least one common bus stop in East Dublin, so students can wait for both buses on one bus stop.
