Transit Centers

Transit Centers are central, convenient connection points for several different bus routes. Connections are timed so you can usually transfer between bus routes within a short time. Transit centers have well-lit, highly visible shelters, seating and travel information.

Commerce Transit Center

Improvements are coming to Pierce Transit’s Commerce Street transit hub in downtown Tacoma. While making much-needed repairs and renovations, we are also upgrading the “Water Wall” along Commerce, which is past its useful life and no longer functional.  This space will be transformed using art, color, lighting and natural elements. Above, on Theater Square (which serves as the “roof” to Pierce Transit’s bus tunnel below), work is underway, including cleaning and projects to make it a more versatile and pedestrian-friendly space. Bus service will not be affected during this period.

Spanaway Transit Center - Currently in Design

To improve service in the Spanaway area, Pierce Transit will be constructing a new transit center on Highway 7, a few blocks south of Walmart, and just north of Joint Base Lewis McChord. 

This new station will extend Bus Route 1 service to the southern edge of the Pierce Transit service area. It will include a 32-car commuter parking lot, a kiss-and-ride drop-off area, a comfort station for transit operators and pick-up/drop-off for a variety of shuttle services. 

When the Bus Rapid Transit service comes online in the next few years, it will offer the Spanaway area faster access to downtown Tacoma and connections to other parts of the region. As ridership grows, the project site will accommodate an ultimate build-out of 300 parking spaces. 

The project is currently in design. Construction is scheduled to start late 2021, with the Transit Center to open in mid-2022. Click here to view the current site plan.

Trip Planner Help

Trip Planner Tips - Entering Locations

To create a trip plan you need to enter both a starting location (origin) and an ending location (destination). For information about stops, schedules, or service at a specific location, you only need to enter one location.

The Trip Planner recognizes most street intersections and addresses as well as many landmarks in Pierce, King, and Snohomish Counties. If what you entered is not immediately recognized, the Trip Planner will offer you a list of options. You can choose one of the options, but if your intended location is not there, select the "Revise Original Entries" link to return to the entry page and change the entries you have already made.

Addresses

  • You don't need to type in the city along with the address. The Trip Planner shows the possible city names as options if needed. City names are based on zip codes.
  • You don't need to type in St., Street, Ave., or Avenue, or similar street types. The Trip Planner shows the possible alternatives as options if needed. (Example: type 110 Jones instead of 110 Jones Boulevard.)
  • You don't need to type in the directional designations for streets, but if a direction name is part of a street name, you should include it. (Example: type 1000 Main instead of 1000 S Main. But type 1000 West Viewmont for 1000 West Viewmont Way W.)
  • Some streets and addresses are unknown to the Trip Planner. You may need to enter another nearby location, such as an intersection or a landmark.
  • You should not enter the suite number or apartment number.  Just the house number and street name (Example: type in 401 Broadway instead of 401 Broadway Avenue Suite 800).

Intersections

  • The "&" symbol is the only character used between two street names to show an intersection. (Examples: 1st & B, James & Madison)
  • You don't need to type in the city. The Trip Planner shows the possible city names as options if needed. City names are based on zip codes.
  • You don't need to type in St., Street, Ave., or Avenue, or similar street types. The Trip Planner shows the possible alternatives as options if needed. (Example: type Conifer & Jones instead of Conifer Circle & Jones Boulevard.)
  • You don't need to type in the directional designations for streets, but if a direction name is part of a street name, you should include it. (Example: type 3rd & Main instead of 3rd S & S Main. But type 34th & West Viewmont for 34th W & West Viewmont Way W.)
  • Some streets are unknown to the Trip Planner. You may need to enter another nearby intersection or a landmark.
