What's New - Effective September 20, 2020
Due to the effects of COVID-19, Pierce Transit had to reduce bus services to about 90% of what existed before the pandemic. This September 2020 schedule was developed to retain as many weekday trips as possible to reduce impacts to daily bus riders. We hope we can restore more service in March 2021, depending on the agency’s financial recovery from COVID-19.
