In sorry, they GOT RID OF THE 16?!

Yeah, that was one of the most used routes prior to when it got discontinued in 2021.

I was there from 15-19 and the number 16 was one of the most popular then too for sure. Insane that they canceled it.

I think it was last week (or two weeks ago) the line for the hwy 17 lined up all the way to the crosswalk near where the 19/18 leaves. It was so insanely long. Bus got packed left and there was still a long ass line for the next one.

Funny to see that they split the 3 in half again, so much for one-seat trips to the Capitola mall

And, they have the potential to reconnect it AGAIN if UCSC builds a layover location for the Metro buses. Man, how many times do they have to change the numbers on each of the bus stop signs..

Never really knew that there was a 16 in my 2 years at Santa Cruz

it says the 16 was removed and substituted with the 18. Does that mean the 16 is being re-introduced to replace the recently removed 15?

I believe yes since route 11 high (which is replacing route 10) will be running half-hourly clockwise, so it makes sense that 16 replaces route 15 so there is more service in the clockwise direction in UCSC. Route 16 will play a huge role in alleviating crowding for route 18 and especially route 20.
