Petaluma, CA— Due to a significant decline in ridership resulting from the coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis, the Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit District (SMART) will implement further reductions to weekday train service, effective Monday, April 6, 2020.

The modified weekday schedule will operate 16 train trips daily, serving all stations and will remain in effect until further notice. With this new round of reductions, SMART has scaled back its weekday service by 50%. Additionally, all weekend service remains suspended.

During the COVID-19 health crisis, SMART’s ridership has declined by 90%. The agency will continue to monitor ridership and may implement additional service level changes as needed.
