Connecting Transit
Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) provides commuter service on the express line 140 from Fremont BART station and Milpitas to Mission College. There is also a limited service route 330 linking San Jose's Almaden Valley and the city of Campbell with Santa Clara and Milpitas. Line 59 previously served this station but was discontinued on January 14, 2008 as a result a reorganization of VTA bus service. AC Transit line 217 formerly served this station but this service was discontinued due to the fact that this line serves as a link between Fremont BART station and the VTA light rail system and in 2005 the rail line was extended to the city of Milpitas at Great Mall and beyond, thus the 217 was truncated to a new terminus there.
Altamont Commuter Express offers an employer shuttle to this area from the nearby Santa Clara/Great America Station.
San Joaquin Regional Transit District (SMART) line 177 brings in commuters from Tracy/Naglee P&R, Manteca, and Stockton with intermediate stops in San Jose and Milpitas.

Famous quotes containing the words connecting and/or transit:
“Mine was, as it were, the connecting link between wild and cultivated fields; as some states are civilized, and others half-civilized, and others savage or barbarous, so my field was, though not in a bad sense, a half-cultivated field. They were beans cheerfully returning to their wild and primitive state that I cultivated, and my hoe played the Ranz des Vaches for them.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There’s that popular misconception of man as something between a brute and an angel. Actually man is in transit between brute and God.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
