WeGo Public Transit modifies existing routes, schedules, and bus stops in order to improve overall service twice a year. We make these changes based on ridership trends, service reliability, and route productivity. Changes are generally implemented in the winter (early January) and the summer (early July).
The process takes six months and includes:
- Proposal development
- Community meetings
- Board approval
- Schedule development
- Infrastructure
- Customer information
- Implementation
Winter 2027 Changes
WeGo Public Transit is proposing a new connector route in Antioch and frequency improvements for its Winter 2027 Service Changes. Service changes are funded by Mayor Freddie O’Connell’s voter-approved Choose How You Move transportation improvement program.
An open public comment period on the proposed changes will be held from Monday, September 21 through Friday, October 16, 2026. During this time, customers can view the proposed changes, provide comments directly to WeGo staff, and submit feedback via mail, phone, and email as the agency works to ensure the proposed changes meet the needs of the communities served.
