B-Line Redesign: 
Chico-Oroville Network Study

The Chico-Oroville Network Redesign project is a system-wide reimagining of the local B-Line bus networks operating in and between Chico and Oroville: where the buses go, and how often. 

B-Line hasn’t redesigned local service in a long time, but the community's needs and goals have changed.  We need to make sure that the bus network is right for today, and tomorrow.

This study looks at our current local bus networks and how we can make it better, balancing the area we cover with how well we cover that area. Service that goes everywhere but operates infrequently doesn't work for many people, but only a few routes with really great service may not reach enough people. How do we find that balance to encourage transit use in Chico and Oroville and make it work effectively for as many people as possible?

 

What routes need to operate differently, and does our service provide equity and access to all of our communities?

Redesigning the bus network means collaborating with others to answer questions such as:

Routing and frequency

Where should buses go, and how often should they come?

What kind of bus service should we have on weekends or at night?

Weekends and nights
New or additional service

Should some locations get new service or more service?

How are connections made between buses?
