Service Area Map
As part of a service change pilot program beginning August 1, Pacific Go will operate within an updated service area designed to improve service efficiency while continuing to provide access to essential destinations. During the pilot, Pacific Go will:
- Continue serving communities throughout Pacific County, including areas not served by Pacific Paratransit. Trips must begin and end within the Pacific Go service area, beginning or ending within Pacific County.
- Include dedicated transportation zones connecting riders to major medical facilities in Aberdeen and Astoria.
- Connect with Pacific Transit bus routes for service transfers at the Aberdeen Transit Station and the Astoria Transit Center for non-medical trips.

Reserving a Ride
Reservations are required to be made at least one day before the passenger plans to travel. No same-day scheduling. Reservations can be made up to 14 days in advance.
The Driver will wait only 5 minutes starting from time of arrival. If you do not ride, it will count as a “no show.”
**PLEASE NOTE**
ADA Certified passengers (Pacific Paratransit) have first priority over non-ADA Pacific Go Dial-A-Ride reservations. Non-ADA riders may be bumped in order to accommodate disabled passengers. Dispatchers will notify bumped passengers no less than the day prior to their reserved ride.

ADA Paratransit Services
Previously, Pacific Transit often provided Dial-a-Ride and ADA transportation throughout a much broader geographic area, including destinations outside the ADA-required service area. As part of Pacific Transit’s ADA Corrective Action Plan dated April 30, 2026, the agency has separated these services to ensure ADA riders receive the protections and service standards guaranteed under federal law.
Although both services use accessible vehicles and may look similar, they serve different purposes.
Pacific Paratransit is a federally required ADA service for certified riders with disabilities. Trips are protected by ADA regulations regarding eligibility, scheduling, service hours, reasonable modifications, and trip prioritization.

Pacific Go (Dial-A-Ride) is Pacific Transit’s flexible public Dial-a-Ride program available to everyone. Because it is a general public service, scheduling and availability are based on vehicle and driver capacity, and trips are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis after ADA transportation needs have been accommodated.
