Starting, Monday, March 6, the Midday shuttle will expand
to two new routes. Both routes will continue to be free and open to all. The
20-passenger busses are wheelchair-accessible and have a bicycle rack. The new
service will provide better Caltrain
connections and provide another travel option to residents, especially during
upcoming construction in the area.
Route M1-Menlo Midday (blue line) will run Monday through
Friday, 9:30am-3:00pm, covering the Menlo Park to Palo Alto portion of the
current Midday route. Destinations include downtown Menlo Park, Sharon Heights
Shopping Center, Stanford Medical Center, Stanford Shopping Center, Palo Alto
Medical Foundation, and downtown Palo Alto.
Route M2-Belle Haven (red line) will run Monday through Friday,
6:30am-5:00pm, covering the Senior Center to downtown portion of the current
Midday route. Destinations include the Senior Center, VA Medical Center, Menlo
Medical Clinics, Library and Burgess Park, Menlo-Atherton High School, Caltrain
station, Crane Place, downtown Menlo Park, and Little House.
Please check out the shuttle schedule to
see how the changes may affect your trips. For more information, please contact
the Transportation
Division. Stay tuned for additional changes coming later this spring to the
Marsh Road route.
