Riders should instead use: Bus Stop #580 across the street or Bus Stop #581 at Meadow Lane & Delicado Drive. Additionally, Route 2T operators will accommodate riders needing transportation within the Mirador Community while Route 2M service is suspended.

𝗥𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝟲 𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: 6 Peak will suspend its half hour additional service along Route 6 from 6:15 a.m. – 9:21 a.m. and 3:05 p.m. – 6:21 p.m. Regular hourly Route 6 service will continue to operate during these hours.

𝗥𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝟭 𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: 1 Peak will suspend its 15-minute additional service on Route 1 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:58 p.m. Regular 30-minute Route 1 service will continue to operate during these hours.

A note from James Barela, Transit Manager of ACT: “Suspending these services is a difficult decision because we understand how important and widely used, they are by our residents. Due to the shortage of trained and qualified drivers, our supervisors and dispatch staff have been driving routes daily to maintain service. While they have stepped up tremendously, it has limited the time available to properly train our recently hired drivers before they can be placed into service. This situation has stretched our existing staff significantly. I want to thank the entire team at Atomic City Transit for their dedication, flexibility, and professionalism during this challenging time. This decision was made after discussions with staff and supervisors, with the goal of maintaining safe and reliable service where possible. We appreciate the public’s patience and understanding. If you know someone interested in becoming a driver for Atomic City Transit, we encourage them to apply through the County website.”
