Thrilled that at Capitol Corridor Board we unanimously approved business plan that restores pre-pandemic service!
Currently there are 24 weekday Sacramento-Oakland trains. Next year there will be 30.
Increasing service will make riding more convenient and grow ridership.
On the Capitol Corridor Board Mtg, Director Rebecca Saltzman cautions against raising fares moving ahead in the business plan. Says we need to make train competitive with driving-- especially on short trips. Staff says it's early days on studying fares, not committing to raising
Two big and exciting transitions here - from old cars to new, and current BART directors supporting Victor Flores For BART to be one of the next directors.
It's time to pass safe streets bills like SB 960 and SB 961. Because of unsafe street design, it is too dangerous to cross the street and too dangerous to get behind the wheel. TY Senator Scott Wiener for your leadership.

Bay Area transit is at a crossroads. We need big changes for a vibrant future.
Today, we’re announcing the Connect Bay Area Act (SB 1031) to authorize a 2026 ballot measure to fund, modernize & integrate our transit systems.
I’m joined by my legislative partner Aisha Wahab 愛莎華.🧵
