Vacaville City Coach Labor Dispute Resolved; Regular Bus Service Continues, City Says

VACAVILLE — CALIFORNIA58 LOCAL. Vacaville officials say the labor dispute involving contracted transit operator Transdev and its bus drivers was resolved in August 2026. According to the city, City Coach service was not interrupted during the dispute, and regular routes continued.

Local context and next steps

The city was not a party to negotiations between the company and its employees. Public Works said staff monitored the situation and prepared for possible effects on transit users. The agreement was announced August 12, a day before local schools were scheduled to begin their new year.

Reliable fixed-route buses matter to riders who commute to jobs, attend school or access medical care without a car. Still, resolution of one labor dispute does not mean future schedule changes, delays or other service interruptions are impossible.

Residents should use the published City Coach route information rather than outdated warnings about a possible August strike. The city lists 707-449-6000 for transit schedule questions.

The announcement is an update about transit operations and labor negotiations, not evidence of a new transit line or a permanent guarantee about service levels.
