Latest News
Face Mask Required: Federal law now requires a face mask that covers both nose and mouth when awaiting, boarding, traveling on, or disembarking public transportation, as well as when entering or on the premises of a transportation hub in the United States. Failure to comply may result in denial of boarding or removal. Refusal to wear a mask is a violation of federal law; passengers may be subject to penalties under federal law.
Apply for Medical Exemption: If you have a medical exemption under the federal law, you must apply for and receive a medical-exemption card that you must show the operator upon boarding. CLICK HERE to fill out our online form or call ACCESS at (360) 479-7272 or e-mail access@kitsaptransit.com. A Mask Waiver Card issued by Kitsap Transit is only valid on Kitsap Transit Services. This card is not valid on any other transit system, business or organization.

Keep Riders SafeWe enforce state law requiring face coverings on public transit, provide face masks and hand sanitizer on our services and are in the process of installing seat bands to reinforce social distancing on our buses. |
Keep Your DistanceWhen waiting for your ride and finding a seat, keep your distance from those not in your household. |

Protect our EmployeesWe've installed see-through partitions on our buses to create a physical barrier between our operators and riders at the farebox. In addition, all operators are required to wear a face covering on the job. |
