Mass shooting at the light rail yard. 9 killed, and service suspended during the criminal investigation. Bus bridges operate until May 31st and are suspended as of June 1st. Regular bus service is partially operated by nearby bus agencies, to allow time off for VTA operators. These spots are gradually given back to VTA.

BART opens the Milpitas and Berryessa stations in the northeast of the county. Milpitas has connecting light rail service on the Orange line. Route 500 bus service between Berryessa and Diridon stations operates, and will eventually be eliminated when BART service is extended to downtown san jose

New Transit Service Plan is implemented. Almaden shuttle abandoned due to low ridership, with the last day of service December 27th. The rest of the network is overhauled with three routes: Blue (Santa Teresa-Baypointe), Green (Old Ironsides-Winchester), Orange (Mountain View-Alum Rock). Often in signage just the letter B G O is shown. Express trains to South San Jose were terminated several months prior, as part of the same planning initiative. The entire bus network was overhauled on the same day, to better complement the light rail system and anticipated BART extension.

I880/Milpitas station is renamed Alder station, and Montague station is renamed Milpitas station in order to match the name of the BART station in milpitas and reduce confusion.
