SacRT Blue Line Service Disruption from September 11 through 30, 2026

Sacramento Regional Transit; Temporary Blue Line Service Disruption; September 11 to 30, 2026

SacRT is completing important construction work along the Blue Line to improve safety, accessibility, and rider comfort. During this construction window, Blue Line trains will not operate between Meadowview Station and City College Station.

This service change may affect students who travel north or transfer through City College Station, as riders will need to use a shuttle bus (bus bridge) to travel through the construction area.

Timeline

  • September 11 to 30, 2026: Shuttle bus service in place between City College and Meadowview stations
  • October 1, 2026: Regular Blue Line service resumes
