Route summary

AC Transit bus routes are arranged in six categories (five numbered, one lettered). Since its inception in 1960, AC Transit has used both numbers and letters to distinguish routes. Many Transbay rail lines were inherited from the Key System

Key System

The Key System was a privately owned company which provided mass transit in the cities of Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda, Emeryville, Piedmont, San Leandro, Richmond, Albany and El Cerrito in the eastern San Francisco Bay Area from 1903 until 1960, when the system was sold to a newly formed public...

 and converted to bus routes, and AC Transit continued to use letters to identify the routes. Many Transbay routes continue to follow the original Key System routings to some degree. The number and letter ranges listed below do not mean that all numbers or letters with a range are in use.

Numbered routes operate within the East Bay:

• 1 to 99 primarily serve the northern part of Alameda County and all of Contra Costa County.
• 200 to 299 serve the southern part of Alameda County and Milpitas.
• 300 to 399 serve combined portions of other bus lines, usually only at certain times of day or certain days of the week.
• 600 to 699 operate on school days only.
• 800 to 899 are part of the All Nighter
  All Nighter
  The All Nighter is a night bus service network in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. Portions of the service shadow the rapid transit and commuter rail services of BART and Caltrain, which are the major rail services between San Francisco, the East Bay, the Peninsula, and San Jose...

BART operates five lines on of track with 44 stations in four counties...
  
   is not operating.

One- and two-digit route numbers are sometimes used as a "base" number for three-digit route numbers. For example, Route 339 is "based" on Route 39.

Lettered routes (A to Z) provide Transbay service (i.e., service across a bridge) between the East Bay and San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara Counties.

Suffixes (also lettered) are used on some local and Transbay routes to distinguish different routings. Currently, A, B, C, L, M, R, S, and X are used. Some suffixes have special meanings:

• C - Denotes Combined service on Transbay routes, where portions of two or more routes are combined into a single route during the PM commute period. Used on Routes LC and NXC.
• L - Denotes Limited stop service, where not all local stops are served. Used on Routes 58L and NL.
• R - Denotes Rapid service, which is similar to limited stop service. Used on Routes 1R and 72R.
• X - Denotes Express service, where portions of the main route as skipped entirely. Used on Routes NX, NX1, NX2, NX3, NX4, and OX.

Supplemental numerical suffixes are used to differentiate route variations for lines that already use a lettered suffix. This is the case with the NX lines listed above.

Note: Routes listed below are current as of August 28, 2011.

Local service

These routes serve various cities, towns, and attractions in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. One route also serves Milpitas in Santa Clara County. Several routes provide deviations on select trips, where a bus serves a particular business or school that is not on the regular route. For example, four morning and four afternoon trips on Route 25 deviate from regular routing to serve the Post Office Bulk Mail Center and Point Isabel Regional Shoreline

Rapid service

Bus rapid transit

Bus rapid transit is a term applied to a variety of public transportation systems using buses to provide faster, more efficient service than an ordinary bus line. Often this is achieved by making improvements to existing infrastructure, vehicles and scheduling...

.

There are two Rapid routes operated by AC Transit.

Route	Route Name	Direction	Terminals		Days of Operation	Cities and Communities Served	Connecting BART Station(s)	Schedule Information
			North/East Terminal	South/West Terminal
1R	International Rapid	North-south	Weekdays: Downtown Berkeley (Berkeley & Oxford)	Bay Fair BART	Daily	Berkeley, Oakland, San Leandro	Downtown Berkeley, MacArthur, 19th Street/Oakland, 12th Street/Oakland, Lake Merritt (on 11th & 12th streets), Fruitvale (on International Blvd.), Bay Fair	Route 1R Schedule

These routes provide the following amenities and features:

• Frequent service (every 12 minutes), which complements regular local service
• Stops spacing every 1/2-mile on average
• Passenger shelters with Rapid branding
• Low-floor buses for faster entry and exit
• Transit Signal Priority (TSP) so buses spend less time waiting at traffic signals

Special service

Several special service routes, numbered between 300 and 399, cater to various purposes:

• Routes 314, 356, and 391 provide midday shopper service, connecting residential neighborhoods and senior homes with shopping centers and major attractions.
• Route 333 provides evening "flex" service, picking up passengers at specific locations and dropping them off at any bus stop within Newark.
• Other routes combine popular segments of two or more regular routes and operate evenings and/or weekends when ridership is insufficient to support the regular routes.

Most commute-only routes operate westbound from the East Bay in the morning and eastbound to the East Bay in the afternoon, but some service is provided in the reverse commute direction.

School service

A series of school-day only routes serve a variety of public and private middle, junior high, and high schools in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties. Many of these routes provide connections to/from BART stations. While these lines are open to all riders at regular fares, they do not operate during school breaks and holidays. Some regular local bus routes also provide supplemental school service to nearby schools. These routes are usually timed to match the morning and afternoon bell schedules of all schools served.

There are 59 school routes numbered between 600 and 699: 604, 605, 606, 607, 609, 611, 614, 618, 619, 620, 621, 623, 624, 625, 626, 627, 628, 629, 631, 638, 640, 641, 642, 643, 645, 646, 648, 649, 650, 651, 652, 653, 654, 655, 657, 658, 660, 662, 663, 665, 667, 668, 669, 670, 671, 672, 673, 674, 675, 676, 677, 679, 680, 681, 682, 683, 684, 688, and 689.
