Route 2: Trip departing at 3:23 p.m. from 4th St. at Civic Center Way will no longer operate.

Routes 2 and 3: Buses departing from Westwood heading towards Downtown Santa Monica will now avoid Westwood Blvd. and Wilshire Blvd. intersection.

Route 7: Local 7 stop on westbound Pico Blvd. at Stewart St. (in front of 99¢ Store) will now join the Rapid 7 stop just west of Stewart St.

Routes 8, 12 and Rapid 12: Stop on northbound Westwood Blvd. at Santa Monica Blvd. (in front of car wash) will no longer be in service.

Route 9: Minor route and time changes in Pacific Palisades (please note: this change will occur later in February).
