AC Transit should have a sound service structure that enables efficient, effective and equitable deployment of resources. The service structure should be frequently reviewed to ensure that it meets current needs. The structure should be based on conscious decisions about the District’s service model--one possibility would be a ridership-coverage split in service emphasis. The structure should provide flexibility to direct resources to rider groups (e.g. car-less households) with the greatest needs and support car-free urban living in the Inner East Bay.

Service Structure

Improving the customer experience should be at the center of AC Transit’s

  • mission. The experience of riding an AC Transit bus should be safe, reliable, fast,

clean and pleasant. There should be quick acknowledgement of complaints and comments, and quick response to them. These aspects of the AC Transit’s service should be clearly communicated to the riders, stakeholders, partners and the public.

Customer Experience

Transportation reflects the inequality in the society at large. Public transit can help create a more equitable transportation system by providing mobility to people with special transportation challenges, such as low incomes, limited English Proficiency,

  • r for persons with disabilities. AC Transit, has a special responsibility to ensure that

all receive equitable access to transportation. Equity should be a key factor in all decision making. Under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, the federal policy on Environmental Justice, and the Americans with Disabilities Act, we constantly review, plan and design our facilities and services to be equitable for all users.

Equity

AC Transit’s viability as a public agency is based on support from the public, our stakeholders and partners. We are supported by the public

  • n many levels—governed by a publicly elected Board of Directors,

principally funded from public taxes and fees, and transporting the

  • public. As such, the District should continually use a variety of formats

and forums to engage with partners, stakeholders and the public at large – to inform people about our services, receive feedback from them, maintain a positive image, form strategic partnerships, seek funding and support other agencies and institutions with similar core values.

Public Engagement and Strategic Partnerships

A strong safety culture runs through every activity at AC

  • Transit. Moreover, the bus system, integral to life in the

East Bay, is built upon safe operation every minute of every day. AC Transit will continue to plan and deliver bus service in ways that promote the health and safety of our employees, our passengers, and the general public.

Reliable bus service on the street is the reason AC Transit exists. The District should operate all scheduled trips, with service that is safe, reliable and fast. The District should intensify its efforts to improve the efficiency of its operations and the effectiveness of resource

  • deployment. This not only includes the level of service provided, but

also through roadway infrastructure improvements such as dedicated lanes, improved bus stops and upgraded signals.
