By now you might have heard the good news that for a broad region of the state including Marin County, the drought is over. Marin Transit offers the tattered State of Good Repair (SOGR) construction schedule to prove it.  Construction has been underway since December 3, 2018 for the final phase of the SOGR Bus Stop Improvements Project.  In between the downpours, crews have been installing upgrades to local bus stops that improve passenger amenities and Americans with Disabilities (ADA) access.  Making progress has truly been a challenge as rain unrelentingly fell upon the construction sites. However, the drier forecase for next week will allow us to schedule some of the work that fell victim to the torrential rains experienced the past few weeks.  Below is the rescheduled work plan.

Next week (February 19-22) - President's Day Week:

Redhill Avenue at Sequoia Drive - The construction of this stop will coincide with Spring Break since it is a heavily used student stop. This helps to minimize passenger disruptions. A temporary stop will be placed in front of United Markets at Red Hill Ave and Forbes.

    ✔ Install new shelter

Week of February 25 - March 8:

Magnolia Avenue at Bon Air Road - 

As of February 8th, Walgreens stores are now able to sell and add value to Clipper cards again. Please visit our retail map for other in-person locations. Visit clippercard.com for more updates.
