Please note that as of Monday, October 3, B-Line is running a Route 40 Express.

Due to the popularity of the 7 a.m. Route 41 run between Paradise and Chico, B-Line is adding a concurrent ROUTE 40 EXPRESS that will serve the Paradise stops, then go directly to the downtown Chico Transit Center.

It will follow the current Route 40 Westbound (inbound) counterclockwise run, beginning at the Paradise Transit Center at 6:44, with time points at Skyway/Wagstaff 6:58, Almond/Birch 7:05. It will then head straight the Chico Transit Center (bypassing Forest Ave and making only one stop, at the Chico Park 'n Ride), arriving downtown around 7:35.

Route 40 EXPRESS will not operate during the Chico State summer or winter breaks. It will operate now through Dec 16, 2011, then resume Jan 23, 2012 through May 18.
