POLICY & PROCEDURES

The Bus Departs Promptly at Scheduled Times from Modesto:

If BART is Late Returning in the Afternoon:

 Seating

·       Seat Reservations:  Monthly pass holders will make their reservations for seating on the morning and afternoon bus for which they have a pass.  On a space available basis only, monthly pass holders may also ride on the bus in which they do not have reserved seating.

·       Morning Seating:  On the morning trips to Dublin, the first priority for boarding will be pass holders with reservations on that bus followed by pass holders who usually ride the other morning bus.  It does not matter if the non-pass holders are purchasing one-way or round-trip tickets, they will board on a first-come, first-served basis.

·       Seating Priorities:  Seats of pass holders who have not arrived five (5) minutes before the bus is scheduled to leave in the morning will be assumed to be vacant and available for use by non-pass holders.  If the pass holder boards the bus within five (5) minutes of departure and their reserved seat has been taken, the pass holder will be allowed to sit in any unoccupied seat, or stand.  Early arrival is not required on afternoon buses.  MAX will not assume a pass holder will not be returning on the bus that evening because they did not ride the bus to the BART station in the morning.  Therefore, there will always be room on the afternoon bus for pass holders even if they arrive late in the morning or only ride in the afternoon.

·       Afternoon Seating:  On the afternoon return trips from Dublin, the first priority for boarding will be pass holders with reservations on that bus followed by pass holders who usually ride the other afternoon bus.  Passengers with round-trip tickets will be boarded next, and one-way ticket purchasers will be required to wait to see if there are enough spaces (seats or standing room) to accommodate them on the bus before they are sold a ticket.
