Service Changes

Kitsap Transit has stopped collecting fares on all of its services. Starting on Wednesday, April 1, Kitsap Transit is reducing Routed bus services temporarily by more than 30 percent. 

Temporarily Reduced Service Schedules 
Effective April 1, 2020

Here is the status of our other services:

• Ferries: Passenger loads on all ferries are capped at 46 passengers. Health-care workers and first responders who show their official identification card to our dock agent have priority boarding. The fast-ferry reservations system is suspended; customers with reservations do not need to cancel their unused reservations while the system is suspended.
• ACCESS: The ACCESS program is operating its normal level of service.
• Dial-A-Ride: Dial-A-Ride services are operating at normal levels.
• Worker/Driver: Passenger loads are capped at 22 passengers. Buses are standing by to pick up anyone left behind. For details, CLICK HERE.
• Customer Service: The Customer Service Office at the Bremerton Transportation Center is closed until further notice. The public can still reach Customer Service through our call center (800.501.RIDE). We are in the process of automatically refunding all April passes purchased. Pass holders will receive E-purse credit for the value of their monthly pass. 

Disinfection of our Fleet and Facilities

Kitsap Transit has a comprehensive disinfection program to kill germs, including coronaviruses, on our buses and ferries and at our transit centers. 

Each day we wipe down the main touchpoints on our buses with a hospital-grade disinfectant. We "deep clean" our buses at least twice a week by mopping the floors and disinfecting drop straps, overhead rails and seat backs. We deep clean our ACCESS buses that serve the frail and elderly more frequently. On our ferries we disinfect touchpoints at the end of each shift.

At our transit centers we are regularly disinfecting benches, displays and other frequent touchpoints.

Our lobby at the Harborside Administration office is closed to the public until further notice. We are still accepting deliveries of packages. 

Quarterly Community Meetings Cancelled 

Kitsap Transit is cancelling all of its quarterly community meetings scheduled for March 21 and 28 to support Kitsap Public Health District's efforts to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

We will issue alerts and update this page if any changes are required due to public health mandates or other reasons.
