Making Changes to Serve You Better
B-Line is always working to bring you better service. Because of the recent addition of GPS (global position satellite) and AVL (automatical vehicle locator) to all the B-Line vehicles we are able to create the smoothest and most efficient system we’ve ever had. This new schedule brings just a few minor changes to make the system even better.
The highlights of these changes include: Adjusting the start times on Route 41’s early-afternoon routes, for better on-time performance; creating an additional mid-afternoon run on Route 20; eliminating the Route 15S deviation to the Dorothy Johnson Center, since the Senior Nutrition program it was intended for has relocated; adding a new Route 40 Express morning commute service.
Please discard any old system schedules and refer to this one, dated May 20, 2012, to make sure you have the most up to date information.
How to Read the Schedule Routes on the maps are color-coded to match the schedule information. Each route schedule shows selected time points listed from left to right. Sometimes a bus continues service as another route, which is listed at the right side of the schedule.
Read across the schedule from your boarding time to find the time the bus will arrive at your destination. Although only a few selected time points are listed for each route, the bus will pick up or drop off passengers at any bus stop along the route (a complete list of stops is available on our web site). You can estimate the time the bus will be at your stop by looking at the nearest time points. Be sure to arrive at the bus stop a few minutes early.
Hours / Days of OperationB-Line operates seven days a week. Some routes do not operate every day. Check the timetable of the individual route for exact days and hours of operation. Service is not provided on New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day (July 4), Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Rider Rules of Conduct
When you see the bus nearing your destination or transfer point, signal to the driver you want to get off. Please give enough notice so the driver can make a smooth stop. Depending on the type of bus, press the yellow strip, push the yellow button or pull the cord above the window. The driver will stop at the next bus stop. If you are not familiar with the area, ask the driver to let you know when the bus is nearing your destination.
Exiting the Bus
As the bus approaches the bus stop, stand near the bus stop sign and make sure the driver can see you. Stay out of the street at all times.
Some bus stops are served by more than one route. Check the route number on the destination sign above the windshield or ask the driver if you are unsure.
Have exact fare, a pass or transfer ready when you board the bus. The driver cannot provide change if you pay more than the posted fare. If you will need a transfer to complete your trip, let the driver know when you board the bus. If you are paying for multiple passengers, please let the driver know before inserting your cash fare.
Flag Stops
For most B-Line routes, passengers must get on or off the bus at designated bus stops, marked by bus stop signs. Flag stop areas are sections of some bus routes where passengers may board at any safe location, whether or not a bus stop sign is posted. Within a flag stop area, it is necessary to “flag” the approaching bus that you wish to board. Routes that have flag stop areas are 24, 25, 26, 27, 30, 41 and 46. See the Oroville and Paradise route maps for more detail.
To “flag” a bus, stand at a safe location on the roadside where the driver can see you. Wave to the approaching bus so the driver knows you wish to board. The driver will stop where it is safe to do so to let you on. To get off the bus at a flag stop, advise the driver well in advance so he or she can determine a safe location to stop.

NOTE: Entire length of Route 46 is flag stop.
Note: Route 40 Express, commute serviceBecause of the popularity of the 7 a.m. Route 41 into Chico, B-Line has added a special Route 40X. It leaves the Paradise Transit Center at 6:44 a.m. and follows the Westbound route through Paradise. Once in Chico, it heads straight to the Chico Transit Center (bypassing Forest and making only one stop at the Chico Park ‘n Ride), arriving downtown around 7:35 a.m. It does not operate during the Chico State summer or winter breaks.
On Saturday the Route 40 bus at 12:31 at Skyway & Wagstaff will then service the Route 41 Magalia area. After serving Magalia, it will travel down Clark, reaching the Paradise Transit Center at 1:25, then continuing down the hill to Chico.

Popular Transfer & Connection PointsThe three transit centers in Chico, Paradise and Oroville, along with the Forest Avenue Transfer Point (Forest Xfer), are designed to make transfers between routes quick and easy. In looking at the B-Line schedule you should notice that almost every route that goes to a Transit Center is timed to meet up with other buses.
In addition, many routes have well-timed connections away from the transit centers. Listed here are descriptions of some of the more useful connection points. There are many other transfer points, but these are some of the most common. (In the descriptions below, TC = Transit Center)
If the route you are planning to transfer to has a tight time connection, be sure to let your driver know you are planning to transfer, so the other bus can watch for you. Because the whole system runs on timed transfers and connection points, the driver generally cannot wait more than three minutes for a transfer from a bus that is running behind schedule.
To get between Chico and Oroville Runs on Route 20 are timed to meet with the local routes in both Chico and Oroville at each TC. To get to Chico from Thermalito, take Route 24 and transfer to Northbound Route 20 at Butte County Public Works.
To get to Oroville from Magalia Take the first Westbound Route 41 to Skyway & Wagstaff, transfer to Southbound Route 31. (This connection point also works for the Butte College bus).
To get to Magalia from Oroville Take Northbound Route 31 to Skyway & Wagstaff, transfer to Eastbound Route 41.
To get to Clark Road from Magalia Take Westbound Route 41 and transfer to the Eastbound Route 40 at either the Paradise TC, or Skyway/Wagstaff, or Skyway/Clark. The location depends on the timing for that particular run.
To get to Magalia from Clark RoadTake Westbound Route 40 and transfer to Eastbound Route 41 at either the Paradise TC, or Skyway/Wagstaff, or Skyway/Clark. The location depends on the timing for that particular run.
To get to Paradise & Chico from Magalia on SaturdayTake the a.m. Route 41 from Magalia and transfer to Route 40 at Skyway & Wagstaff. This run is timed to allow taking Route 40 to either Clark Road, or to Chico. In the p.m. take Route 40 back to Skyway & Wagstaff, then transfer to Route 41. There is also one midday run which goes directly from Magalia to Chico, via Clark.
To get to/from Pleasant Valley High School to/from Lassen AvenueGoing to PVHS: Take Northbound Route 15, transfer to Southbound Route 7 at Lassen & Ceres. PVHS to Lassen: Take the Northbound Route 7, transfer to Southbound Route 15 at Ceres & Lassen.

Bicycles
Bike racks are located on the front of all B-Line buses. Racks are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Riders are responsible for loading and unloading bicycles. Drivers cannot assist with the loading or unloading of bikes. Please tell the driver before you load your bike. When you get off the bus, ask the driver to wait while you remove your bike from the rack. After you have removed the bike, wave to the driver to indicate it is safe to drive away.
Bikes are not allowed inside the vehicles, with the following exception: If it’s the last intercity run of the day, all the racks are full, and there is room inside the bus to safely put the bike (meaning not overcrowded with passengers). Driver discretion.
Passengers use the bike racks at their own risk. B-Line assumes no responsibility for damage or loss to the bicycle or any items thereon.
