AC Transit, which serves the densely populated western portion of Alameda County, including Oakland and Berkeley, has been slashing budgets and service for years now. There are even some residential neighborhoods up in the Oakland hills with no service at all. 
Years ago it was considered a model for transit agencies across the country. Then BART was built. AC Transit lost a lot of its premium transbay (to SF) commuters (fare is $4 and change, compared to $2.10 local) to BART.
