#90 Poulsbo/Bainbridge
Construction Detour - Bus to Remain on Hwy. 305
Starting Monday, May 20
Construction on Madison Avenue between High School Road and Wallace Way will require the #90 Poulsbo/Bainbridge bus to remain on Hwy. 305 on mid-day trips when it normally serves Winslow.
Flagged and one-way traffic and occasional closures on Madison Avenue are expected to cause heavy back-ups and delays. To ensure the bus can maintain its schedule, starting May 20 until approximately June 30, the #90 bus will not serve the Winslow Way, Madison, High School Road loop on weekdays. Affected trips include the 8:55am, 10:50am and 2:15pm weekday departures from the Poulsbo Transfer Center and the 8:40am, 1:00pm, 2:05pm and 2:45pm weekday departures from Bainbridge. Saturday service will not be impacted and will operate normally.
Kitsap Transit filling in for cancelled Navy shuttles
In March, the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard eliminated on-base commute-hour shuttles due to budget cutbacks.
Kitsap Transit is running three Worker/Driver buses, driven by W/D operators with the appropriate security clearances, to serve shipyard employees. The buses run during the morning and afternoon peaks and do not affect existing W/D routes.
KT shuttles operate from 5:40am to 7:00am and from 3:30pm to 4:05pm weekdays, making stops as needed. The last scheduled departure for pick-ups is 4:05pm. The buses operate from the Montgomery Parking Lot/Garage to the Main Gate, from the Missouri Gate F-Lot to the Main Gate, and a loop inside the Controlled Industrial Area.
The cash fare is $1 and is collected in the morning only. Riders with a TIP pass loaded on an ORCA card can tap to pay their fare. Riders with ORCA E-purse will want to pay cash, as the system will collect the standard $2 full fare instead of the $1.
