Notice of Bus Stop Removal: To improve traffic flow and safety near Woodbridge High School, the Irvine CONNECT bus stop on northbound West Yale Loop just north of Alton Parkway will be eliminated, effective Friday, January 24.
Students will continue to have convenient Irvine CONNECT access to Woodbridge High at the nearby stop in front of the high school on Alton Parkway near Meadowbrook. This stop is also a transfer point to the OC Bus 86 route. The Irvine CONNECT stop farther north on West Yale Loop is not far from the OC Bus 53 route stop on southbound West Yale Loop and Barranca.
