Service Changes

All services have returned to regular hours as listed on the website. Some routes remain impacted by local construction; please pay close attention to this page’s short-term and long-term deviation sections to stay informed of changes to your route. If you have questions please call 509-525-9140.


Special Services

(typically community events with auxiliary public transit services)

If you need a bus ride from the airport, call Valley Transit between 8:00 am and 8:00 pm, Monday through Friday, or 10:45 am and 6:00 pm on Saturday. Call us at 509-527-3779, and we’ll send the next Route 1 or East Loop bus to pick you up. This works well with the flights that arrive and depart in the middle of the day. If your flight falls before or after those hours listed above, the bus won’t be available, so you’ll need to take a taxi or use a ride share service instead.
