SAN JOSE, CA -- The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority released its 2018 Holiday Service Schedule, which highlights limited stops and some cancellations on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
Nonetheless, VTA has suggested being a designated driver on New Year's for those indulging in holiday celebrations. A user can ride for free on light rail and bus lines from 8 p.m. until 5 a.m. on New Year’s Day.
VTA offices will be closed with all service operating on a Sunday schedule for Christmas Day and New Year's Day. If a route doesn't normally operate on Sundays, it will not be in service.
