Current Exhibit

The Hattie Weber has a new exhibit. "Ride a Double Decker, Save the Air" presents the history of Davis's red double-decker buses, originally purchased from England in 1967 by the Associated Students of UCD.

Learn how the students' project to create a campus/city bus service was linked to the campus liberalism of the 60s, and how that service has evolved to include environmentally friendly buses today.

Operated by the Yolo County Historical Society for the City of Davis
