County Connection adds service
On March 10, County Connection added more service to bus routes serving Concord.
Route 14, which runs from Concord BART to Pleasant Hill BART, now extends to Walnut Creek BART and service frequency increased to every 30 minutes. County Connection also increased frequency on Route 19, which connects Concord BART to Martinez Amtrak, and on Route 20, which runs from Concord BART to Diablo Valley College.
Meanwhile, County Connection replaced service on Route 28 between North Concord BART and Mason Circle with new Route 27. Additional service to the area is through a realignment of Route 99X to serve Arnold Industrial Way.
Rides are $2 each way with a Clipper card or $1 if transferring from BART, but cash fares increased to $2.50. In addition, the county discontinued the 10 a.m.-2 p.m. free fare program for seniors and disabled passengers. However, seniors and those with disabilities will continue to get a 50 percent discount off the regular fare.
