"County Connection's board of directors agreed this week to join with Contra Costa County to run two shuttles during the morning and evening rush hours. Service should begin in January if all goes well, said Cindy Dahlgren, County Connection's chief of administration. The shuttles are one of a handful of measures the county and BART are taking to cope with the expected loss of 581 spaces in a parking lot adjacent to the station."
