From slight route adjustments to increased COVID protections, Tri Delta Transit is ready for passengers

Antioch, Calif., (March 3, 2021) – As vaccinations continue occurring throughout Contra Costa County, Tri Delta Transit has been working throughout the pandemic to better serve their passengers by making adjustments that will allow for the transit agency to continue operating in the best interests of the community.

On the COVID-19 front, Tri Delta Transit has implemented changes that will allow customers to take public transit in a manner that will limit their exposure, as much as possible. From an increase in personal protection equipment on all buses to contactless payment options, the transit agency made adjustments that, when passengers are ready to use public transit, will help to create a safe environment.

“The current pandemic created an opportunity for Tri Delta Transit to re-examine how we are going to provide our service into the future,” said Jeanne Krieg, Chief Executive Officer, Tri Delta Transit. “By further investing into safety measures, we are making it clear that we will always operate with the best interests of our passengers in mind because being there for them will always be our goal.”

Additionally, to more seamlessly connect Tri Delta Transit riders with the rest of the Bay Area, the transit agency made minor scheduling changes. In doing so, Tri Delta Transit is seeking to alleviate missed connections with other Tri Delta Transit buses, and other transit agencies.

“Through these schedule adjustments, Tri Delta Transit is seeking to make timetable improvements that will allow for our passengers to reach their destinations seamlessly,” said Maria Arce, Chief Communications Officer, Tri Delta Transit. “As a transit agency, we are proud that we were able to make these schedule adjustments without cutting any routes, or the frequency of trips.”
