SF Line 45 Restores Service After Police Incident

Line 45 buses bypassed stops for one hour due to police activity in East Bay

Line 45 Skips Stops Due to Police Activity

Line 45 buses in the San Francisco-San Jose area skipped several stops for about an hour March 13 due to police activity, transit officials said. Buses traveling in both directions couldn't serve stops between 105th Avenue & San Leandro Street and International Boulevard & 104th Avenue. The agency arranged alternative stops to accommodate affected passengers during the disruption, though specific details about how many riders were impacted weren't available.

Service Disruption Affects Key Corridor

The temporary service changes affected a busy corridor in the East Bay, where Line 45 typically serves residential and commercial areas. Transit agencies routinely adjust service when police activity or other emergencies block normal routes, officials said. The disruption lasted approximately one hour before normal service resumed. Specific details about the nature of the police activity that prompted the route changes weren't provided by the transit agency.

Multiple Stops Bypassed During Incident

Buses skipped stops along a roughly one-mile stretch between 105th Avenue & San Leandro Street and International Boulevard & 104th Avenue, transit officials said. The agency didn't specify exactly how many stops were affected or how many passengers typically use those stops during the timeframe of the disruption. Officials arranged alternative boarding locations, though details about where those temporary stops were located weren't immediately available. The transit system used social media to provide real-time updates to riders about the service changes.

Normal Service Restored After Hour

Line 45 buses returned to their regular routes after approximately one hour, officials said, though a specific time when normal service resumed wasn't provided. The agency typically coordinates with local police to determine when it's safe to return to regular routing after incidents. Transit officials didn't say whether any delays persisted after buses returned to normal stops or how long it took for schedules to return to regular timing.

Riders Can Track Service Changes

Transit officials said they use social media to provide real-time updates during service disruptions, helping riders plan alternative routes or adjust their travel times. The agency didn't specify whether it has protocols for notifying riders at affected stops during emergencies. Moovit provides real-time service alerts and alternative routing suggestions for Bay Area transit lines, helping riders navigate unexpected disruptions.
