EspañolVALLEJO TRANSIT
'Vallejo Transit' or 'VT' is a public transportation service in Solano County, California. It provides local, express, and school bus service to the Solano County cities of Vallejo, Fairfield, Suisun City, and Vacaville. Ferryboat service south across San Pablo Bay is provided to San Francisco's Ferry Building from the Vallejo Ferry Terminal in downtown Vallejo. Express bus service to Contra Costa County, allowing connection to the regional BART rail system, is provided to the El Cerrito del Norte station in El Cerrito.
Vallejo Transit also offers pick-up from home service for physically disabled, called 'Vallejo Runabout'. Although part of the same system, Express buses and ferries are branded as 'Baylink'; local buses are branded as Vallejo Transit. Local buses consist of Gillig Phantoms and Orion V High Floors, painted white with a wavy blue gradient which blends into the logo on the front end of the bus. Supplemental school routes use TMC 102-A3s. Baylink buses are MCI D-4500 buses, painted white with a wave shaped stripe separating a graphic of the San Francisco skyline on rear and the Baylink logo on the front, or wrapped in advertising. All buses on both Vallejo Transit and Baylink are wheelchair accessible.[1]
As of July 1, 2007, ten routes run along the system. The first seven are branded as Vallejo Transit and run entirely in the city of Vallejo. Three of them are east-west routes which loop in opposite directions of each other. For example; Route 5 loops along the central and eastern parts of town in a clockwise direction. Three of the routes are north-south intercity routes branded as Baylink. Route 80 travels south from Vallejo into Contra Costa County, arriving at El Cerrito Del Norte, then returns to Vallejo. Route 85 travels north from Vallejo into Fairfield, first to Solano Community College then Solano Mall before reversing its path. Route 200 travels between Vallejo and San Francisco. [2][3]
