VTA to run more buses on seven routes so fewer passengers are left behind

Santa Clara Valley Transit Authority is going to run some bus lines more frequently so fewer passengers get left behind.

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the transit agency has been requiring passengers to be spaced six feet apart on its buses and light rail cars. Doing so, though, has limited the capacity of its vehicles, and some have been unable to accommodate passengers waiting to board as they have no space available. VTA vehicles leave behind about 650 customers a day, agency officials estimate.
