RIDE KITSAP TRANSIT

Limited Snow Service

When Extreme Weather Hits... 

Your Kitsap Transit routed bus will likely not run its normal route when conditions become unsafe for our operations.

Limited Snow Service is designed to connect Kitsap’s communities using arterial roads. Buses serve major roadways between Bainbridge, Poulsbo, Silverdale, Bremerton and Port Orchard. Local and fast ferries will still operate as long as sailing conditions are deemed acceptable.

See the maps below to learn which arterials Kitsap Transit buses will operate on when we are running Limited Snow Service.

Stay Informed

As driving conditions improve, service will be upgraded gradually -- from Limited to Snow Route or Normal Route. These service upgrades will occur at specific time intervals in order to give our customers time to plan accordingly. The time intervals we plan to make changes to service are 4 AM, 9 AM, Noon, 3 PM and 7 PM.
