Our story

Pierce Transit was founded in 1979, when local voters approved a 0.3 percent sales tax to fund public transportation. We are now the second largest transit agency in the state of Washington [more].

Our mission

Pierce Transit connects communities with safe, reliable, customer-friendly transit options.

Our services

We serve 450 square miles of Pierce County with local and express bus service, specialized transportation for people with disabilities, vanpools and rideshare programs.

Meet our Board of Commissioners

Pierce Transit is governed by a nine-member Board of Commissioners. The board is made up of elected officials representing Pierce County, Tacoma, Lakewood and the smaller towns and cities of our service area. Commissioners' term is three years. The Board of Commissioners meets the second Monday of each month at 4:00 p.m. at Pierce Transit headquarters, 3701 96th Street SW, Lakewood, Washington. View the current (or most recent) agenda here. Board meetings are sometimes canceled or rescheduled because of holidays or other events.
