message: Currently t his is a redlink on this template; however, while there's no single article on this topic, there are fairly extensive articles on each of the three lines -- Mountain View - Winchester (VTA), Ohlone/Chynoweth - Almaden (VTA), and Alum Rock - Santa Teresa (VTA).  Not sure the best way to handle this. --Jfruh (talk) 14:28, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yolobus and RT participate in the Solano Express program though the Bay Area. They provide feeder service into the Bay Area or to train stations that feed into the Bay Area. Monterey Salinas Transit has feeder service to the Caltrain at Gilroy 98% of which are headed for the Silicon Valley and even San Francisco. Neighboring counties often cooperate with each other. The Bay Area is considered to be the 9 counties by everyone but adjacent counties or communities in adjecant counties near the 9 county borders are often considered to be in the bay area. Liek Tracy in San Joaquin county, like Scotts Valley in Santa Cruz County. Santa Cruz county is often considered to be part of the bay area. The local news media tends to cover the entire greater region. Modesto Healdsburg Monterey even Lodi and Stockton. It forms a greater metropolitan area defined by from where people commute into the Bay Area. I think it should be changed name to Greater Bay Area...71.142.91.34 22:18, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I recently added places and entities since i though government bodies like the MTC and WTA and programs such as All Nighter and Spare the Air belonged here. I also added places. I didn't put in every place because that would be wayyyy to much so i chose the most important ones in the region, big hubs and transfer stations in every region. Fremont because of its extensive feeder service into san jose, dublin/pleasanton for the same reason into the san ramon/diablo/amador/livermore/san joaquin valleys, martinez since it has all the amtrak lines running through it and it has feeder service from several agencies tridelta (antioch/east county), county connection (local central county walnut creek concord san ramon), westcat (west county/hercules richmond, el cerrito), benicia breeze (benicia solano county vallejo), and it a ferry terminal is planned here and in the works, and it will likely host future wBART service, i chose the most popular downtown sf bart stations since they had the highest ridership and were intermodal with muni and cable cars, balboa park since its intermodal/transfer station, milbrae intermodal caltrain/bart connection, mt. view vta light rial/caltrain, san jose diridon sj airport, buses, hwy 17 express to santa cruz, light rail, ace, capitol corridor amtrak, you get the picture, daly city since 3 lines terminate there, richmond intermodal, el cerrito del norte regional hub solano express/vallejo transit/fairfield suisin transit/west cat/golden gate transit/ohlone trail/ac transit/bart, the major bart transfer stations 12th st/macarthur, i didnt inlcude any bart stations just for being terminals but chose them based on ridership, if they were a regional hub attracting various agencies from far reaching areas in differant areas, if they had intermodality, if they were a major transfer station. so yeah thats the reasoning for the big additions.CholgatalK! 03:27, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Important transit places 

message: I think this article should be renamed to Northern California Public Transit, since there are article links in this template that are located out of the San Francisco Bay Area (e.g. Unitrans, Manteca Transit, MAX). Hydrogen Iodide 01:26, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: as for unitrans it is part of the San Francisco Bay Area wiki Project. Unitrans serves the city of Davis and that city's southern border straddles Solano County, i believe some of its routes run in Solano County, their website is currently down so i could not make sure, but Davis itself is often considered part of the bay area since its right on the border of the "official 9 counties"CholgatalK! 23:43, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

message: I dunno if all the articles in the "Bus" section of this category are notable. In any case, I just wanted to leave a note here saying that I just merged Calistoga Handy Van into VINE (Napa County), so the Calistoga Handy Van link on this template might be removed if you think that is necessary.
