Draft 2026 Transit Service Plan
Hello, VTA riders -- it’s that time of year again, another VTA annual service plan! The 2026 Transit Service Plan is VTA’s fourth annual plan since the 2019 Next Network redesign, and this year we look forward to providing informative updates on potential changes affecting your routes.
Although VTA faces a difficult budgeting season ahead, there are no plans to cut overall service levels. Maintaining transit reliability while adjusting service in ways that minimize impacts on riders continues to be a top priority. However, “traffic inflation” continues to slow down our service, which over time costs more resources (hours, operators, and vehicles) to keep VTA service running reliably and according to posted frequencies and schedules.
Consequently, the draft 2026 Transit Service Plan proposes very few changes from the adopted 2025 Transit Service Plan. The plan aims to balance critical changes with available operating resources. Proposed changes include:
· Changing the Route 59 end point to serve the Santa Clara Valley Medical Center campus instead of Saratoga & Stevens Creek in Santa Clara.
· Discontinuing Express Route 121 due to loss of employer sponsorship on the route.
· Keeping Rapid Route 523 at today’s conditions (i.e. 20-minute weekday frequencies).
There are no proposed changes for light rail service in 2026 (Blue, Green, and Orange Lines). VTA has already restored Saturday and Sunday light rail frequencies to 20 minutes as of April 2025.
