    Brand new transit center and Bart station. It is currently ONLY open for bus transfers. The Bart part of the station is still CLOSED. This station and transit center is about 5 minutes walking distance from the Great Mall and is right next to VTA's Montague light rail station. Currently the transit center serves VTA & AC Transit. BART does not have service as of yet but hopefully does soon. Bus routes that serve this station are: VTA Routes: 77, 66, 60, 20, 70, 71, 47, 44, & 104 AC Transit Routes: 217

    Clean. New. Inviting. Confusing a bit for buses. Customer drop off and picked is not greatly pointed out. Tv screens and schedules were inoperative. Customer Service was yelling calls over the loudspeaker. Reminded me of Oakland 14th St in The hood BART not New Silicon Valley HiTech Milpitas BART. It is clean, well maintained, and BART police were taking homeless non payers out of the station, which was new, as they would not touch them before. Interesting. Fares have changed about $1.25ish based on travel. AIRPORT round trip from Milpitas is $15/$30(2hrs)round trip. Rideshare will run you $65/$130rt(35mins). Bus will run $7/$14rt(5hrs) and CalTrain will run you $7/$14rt(1.5hrs) Airport parking can run from $10 a day to $26 a day. So choose your travel plan wisely. BART is an OK trip for the time and money. Access is directly to SFO terminals. And immediate working walkways, elevators, escalators to all terminals. Great Job BART! Good planning. Fair prices, well under the competition. Cleaner cars, as well as policed. I like the new BART.

    Made an easy connection outside to the VTA 60 bus, which I rode to SJC to catch my Southwest flight home.

    A Call for Genuine Transportation Solutions…read more It's astonishing to witness the blatant disregard for implementing an efficient route to & from south county. These areas remain starkly neglected, despite persistent appeals for more expedient transportation options. The proposed system, which serves a few bus stops -- 1 in Gilroy, 1 in Morgan Hill, & potentially another in South San Jose--would connect a lot quicker to Diridon Station, but the current system, with several bus stops along Monterey Rd without ever going in the freeway, fails to quickly connect to Diridon Station for Caltrain. This oversight particularly affects those living just south of the Caltrain service cutoff during off-peak hours. Moreover, the notion of a separate route connecting to the North San Jose/Berryessa BART Station remains a distant dream. The insistence that the Rapid 568 is sufficient simply because it bears the label "rapid" is both misleading & disheartening. Residents of Morgan Hill & Gilroy have expressed that these services are far too slow, which takes over 2 times or even 3 or 4 times as long as a car ride. The reality is stark: driving from Morgan Hill to Diridon Station takes around 25 minutes, while the so-called "Rapid 568" drags on for over 50 minutes. One could just as easily rename it the "Less Slow 568." The route's failure to utilize the freeway for faster transit is baffling. The bus company even sometimes has the buses to say "Spare The Air", & to encourage people to take the bus instead of driving, which comes at the expense of their sleep time if they choose to use it for work purposes, all by which they won't if they have the ability & means to get a car. And despite the bus company encouraging people to take public transportation, most of those working in the corporate or headquarters level of the VTA bus company drive to & from work & don't do their part, highlighting a major hypocrisy among them! Is it too much to ask for a direct bus route that connects Gilroy to Diridon Station with minimal stops near the freeway? The alternatives are hardly feasible. For those considering rideshare options like Lyft or Uber, the financial burden is staggering--always over $30 or even often over $40 for a one-way trip, not to mention the expectation of tipping the driver. This scenario is not sustainable for daily commutes, especially for those in Morgan Hill or Gilroy who lack access to a car. A former VTA employee I spoke with expressed dismay at the apparent apathy within route management. He remarked that many of the staff seem to go to work just for a paycheck, a troubling indictment of a system that should prioritize the needs of its community. Imagine the transformation that could occur if these decision-makers were to relocate to Morgan Hill or Gilroy & rely on public transportation for their daily commutes. Their perspective would undoubtedly shift, catalyzing much-needed improvements in service. Unfortunately, the prevailing reality is that public transportation is not serving the people effectively. While there may be lofty goals to encourage a shift away from personal vehicles, such aspirations falter when faced with the prospect of sacrificing over 1 hour of commuting time for a 1 way trip, which means well over 2 hours in total daily commute when going to work only to much of San Jose & especially Santa Clara, especially if it means sacrificing almost half of normal sleep time just to take public transportation. This isn't merely conjecture; it's a palpable truth that drives individuals back to their cars, seeking convenience over inconvenience. The cycle is self-perpetuating. As more individuals opt for personal vehicles due to the inefficiencies of public transport, the ridership declines, leading to dwindling revenue for the very services that should be thriving. When I finally buy my own car, I won't miss public transportation in the slightest. I will relish the freedom it provides, & I can only predict that my experience will mirror that of countless others who find themselves in the same position. Ultimately, the message is clear: you reap what you sow. If public transportation continues on this path of neglect & inefficiency, it risks becoming obsolete. Change won't come from mere wishful thinking; it must be driven by the voices of those who demand better. Only through active engagement & persistent requests & having the city or county to put more serious people who won't be spending tax money unwisely but rather wisely to put more efficient route to work can we hope to create a transportation system that truly serves its community.

    Raphael goes above and beyond for customers and their events. I have recently used them a few weeks…read moreago for a shuttle to top golf and back, and everyone had a great time. Motor coaches, mini busses, vans, limousines, they got it all and they do a great job at showing up on time and in professional vehicles. I guess only thing I can recommend is to not lose your stuff, as they aren't baby sitters who pickup after you ;) Grown adults shouldn't have any issues working with Umbrella!

    What you look for in a bus company is to safely and efficiently get passengers from Point A to…read morePoint B. Umbrella Bus barely got our passengers from Point A to Point B, did not do so efficiently, and arguably didn't do it terribly safely. We booked Umbrella for a 54-passenger shuttle to transport wedding guests from our wedding hotel to our ceremony venue, and then from the ceremony venue to the reception venue ($1050 total). I confirmed this itinerary with their staff by email and phone several times (at least three), because they kept sending me invoices that only showed a partial itinerary, but they assured me that they had the correct itinerary written down and would read off the correct itinerary on the phone when I called. On the first trip, the bus driver got the bottom of the bus stuck on a steep hill, rendering it unable to move. Guests had to walk nearly a quarter mile from where the bus got stuck to the ceremony site. The bus was also blocking the entrance to the park where the ceremony was held, meaning that park visitors and several wedding guests who were behind it were severely delayed in getting into the park. We had a couple of guests who missed some of the wedding ceremony because the bus blocked the entrance for so long. It would've been 3.5 stars if only for this, since it wasn't 100% the driver's fault, though he should really have known what the buses he drives are able to handle. On the second trip, though, despite me confirming the destinations in the itinerary with Umbrella MULTIPLE TIMES, the driver had somehow been given the wrong destination by their dispatch, and took guests back to the hotel instead of to the wedding reception venue. My family members had to argue with the driver, who insisted that he'd been told to take everyone back to the hotel, and "I'm only doing two trips, how will people get back to the hotel?" but he eventually relented and took everyone to the reception instead, but meant that most of the guests were delayed by quite a bit in getting to the reception. This definitely wasn't the driver's fault though, and was clearly the fault of the company/dispatch. He did eventually take the guests where they needed to go, which we appreciate.
