Pacific Transit Introduces Improved 2025 Routes

June 10, 2025

As part of an ongoing commitment to our community, Pacific Transit is trialing several changes to our fare-free public transit routes, starting on June 16, 2025. The carefully thought-out changes are being implemented to improve rider experience and increase transit efficiency.

A major usability improvement is being made in the form of switching from numbered routes to color-coded routes. This new color-coded system will improve the readability and usability of route tables and rider guides, to make navigating the Pacific Transit System easier.

See new Pacific Transit Rider Guide here.

Pacific Transit has synchronized all routes in order to reduce wait times for transfers between routes. As part of this effort, we have also updated the bus stop times to be more convenient for our riders.

Route 52, known locally as the “Aberdeen Express,” previously ran from Ilwaco to Aberdeen. This route has been canceled due to low ridership, in favor of increasing service to higher volume areas and improving transit efficiency. For assistance in traveling to Aberdeen, riders are recommended to call the Pacific Transit office at (360) 875-9418 for direction or use the new Route Planner, available on our newly improved website.

Our new pilot program has also increased service to the Long Beach Peninsula by introducing a second bus, additional stops, extended service hours, and additional stop times. Riders can now travel up and down the peninsula in either direction, with more convenient stop times. Sandridge Road, which was previously unserved, has been added to the route in order to increase rider access. Service hours have been extended just in time for summer and peak tourism season.

These changes build on Pacific Transit’s commitment to accessibility, including the recent decision to make most services fare-free, effective in March 2025. 

Our trial period provides an opportunity for riders to test the new routes and share feedback before changes are finalized in early fall. Riders are encouraged to review the updated route information at www.PacificTransit.org or call (360) 875-9418 for additional assistance. Rider feedback is welcomed and encouraged during this important transition.

Pacific Transit System remains dedicated to providing reliable, accessible, and community-centered transportation throughout Pacific County.

It’s All About Community!
