Be it by bus, paratransit, or vanpool; Community Transit provides vital transportation services. We transport people within Snohomish County, as well as to and from locations in King County.
Understandably, you may feel anxious and concerned
about public transit safety as the news of the COVID-19 novel coronavirus continues to be in the headlines, social media, and the topic of conversation with family and friends. We take these concerns very seriously.
Updates and news about COVID-19 is changing rapidly. We evaluate the situation daily and follow the guidance provided by local health authorities. We aim to apply best practices to keep our customers and employees healthy. If you have questions or concerns about the coronavirus, we encourage you to contact the local health authorities:
Last week we updated our vehicle cleaning procedures to include nightly disinfecting of all high-touch areas in all our buses. We want to ensure clean surfaces each morning to assist our riders in having a safe journey to their destination. If you have any concerns or observe a bus or vehicle needing attention, please alert a transit employee immediately.
Providing a safe transit journey requires a partnership with our riders in helping to prevent the spread of illness. We have messages available on our buses and online:
Based on the latest guidance from the Snohomish Health District, Community Transit is postponing in-person, non-essential events and meetings that are open to the general public, whether on- or off-site, until after March 31. Exceptions may be granted
on a case-by-case basis.
Our top priorities are to continue service to the public and to keep our employees healthy and safe. Thank you for partnering with us to help prevent the spread of illness. And stay well!
