| The Gael Rail is returning to Lamorinda. The shuttle will run from 9:30 p.m. to 12:45 a.m. on Thursday and Friday, and on Saturday and Sunday from 6:30 p.m. to 1:25 a.m. between the Lafayette BART station and the Saint Mary's campus. Students travel free and a new service has been added - the shuttle will stop at Ascot Drive on request.
The route is the standard County Connection line along Moraga Rd and St. Mary's Road. The public fare is $2. For non-students, the van will stop at any existing County Connection bus stop, but will also make stops in between - simply wave to the driver and he will pull over at the nearest safe location.
"Additionally, those who do not want to drive the windy roads down to the Lafayette Art and Wine Festival can take the County Connection bus from Orinda, Moraga, and St. Mary's College to the Lafayette BART station where a shuttle will take them to the event," says County Connection's Marie Knutson, "and if they stay in town for dinner they'll be able to get home with the Gael Rail." For more information call 676-7500.
