Saturday September 13, 2014 has been designated by the Yolo/Solano Air Quality Management District and the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District as a “Spare the Air” day. Rides on YOLOBUS and Unitrans fixed route services will be provided at no charge to riders because of this “Spare the Air Day” designation. Also, riders of YOLOBUS paratransit services will not be charged a fare on those days. This free-ride incentive program on YOLOBUS is funded by the Sacramento Area Council of Governments and the Yolo-Solano Air Quality Management District. Likewise, Unitrans, which serves the City of Davis, surrounding area, and U.C. Davis campus, will offer free rides on Spare the Air days as well. This free-ride offer does not apply to Sacramento Regional Transit buses or light rail and free transfers to that system will not be issued.

Daimler Buses and North American Bus Industries, the manufacturers of many of our buses, have informed their transit customers of a rare safety risk to passengers seated in the front row of forward-facing flip seats. As a result, both bus manufacturers have recommended that those seats be locked in their upright position so that they are no longer available for passenger seating. Yolobus is following this recommendation, and those seats on all Orion and NABI buses have now been locked. The priority seating for seniors and people with disabilities will be extended one row further back and additional decals will be installed to designate those seats for priority seating. We are sorry that the front-row seats will no longer be available for our riders, but passenger safety is our highest priority. Meanwhile we are exploring options to recover some of that lost seating capacity. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

The agenda for the June 9, 2014 Board of Directors meeting has been posted to the YCTD website under "About YCTD" "Board Information".

Phase one of the eastbound portion of Fix50 construction is five days ahead of schedule. So far, the three inside lanes in the eastbound direction were closed for construction. Tonight, the three inside lanes will be opened and the two outside lanes will be closed for construction. This means that on/off ramps along that section of freeway will be closed.
