SamTrans will recognize the Juneteenth holiday on Thursday, June 19, by closing the San Mateo County Transit District administrative offices for the day. However, SamTrans bus service will operate on a regular weekday schedule.
Juneteenth commemorates the day — June 19, 1865 — when the last enslaved African Americans learned they were free, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation.
The Customer Service Center will operate with normal hours, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
###
