Proposed Fare Revision
Effective Jan. 1, 2010
The proposed fare revision would end the sale of ticketbooks to the general public effective January 1, 2010. Due to ORCA card implementation, fixed route customers that currently pay with tickets may convert to ORCA and use the e-purse function or pay with cash.
Tickets would still be available for sale to human/social service providers, school districts and administrators of the Pierce County Superior Court Juror Ticket Program. These groups would be able to purchase:
• Regular adult tickets for $1.75 each
• Discounted tickets for $0.75 each for use by youth, senior citizens, individuals with disabilities and individuals with a valid Medicare card.
Books of 11 tickets (buy 10 and get 1 free) would be eliminated. Human/social service providers, schools and the Pierce County Superior Court would be required to preorder and prepay for tickets.
Proposed Service Changes (Revised 10/28/09)
Effective Feb. 7, 2010
The proposed changes are intended to improve customer access to Pierce Transit services and modify routes and schedules that fail to achieve Pierce Transit’s adopted performance standards.
Route 445 South Hill-Spanaway Bus PLUS (see current service)
This unproductive service will be eliminated and the hours of service will be re-allocated to a new Bus Plus Route 446 Canyon Rd-South Hill.
Mid County North- Bus PLUS (see current service)
This unproductive service will be eliminated and the hours of service will be re-allocated to a new Bus Plus Route 446 Canyon Rd-South Hill.
Route 446 Canyon Rd-South Hill (New Route – see map below)
This will be a new BusPlus route which will operate from Meridian Center (160th St. and Meridian Rd) via 160th St., Canyon Rd., 104th St. (31st Ave. SW), 9th St. SW (South Hill P&R), 39th Ave.SE to South Hill Transit Center and return every 120 mins. between the approximate hours of 5:30 AM and 8:00 PM (Mon-Fri)
All Routes
Possible elimination of trips with low ridership.
These changes in transit services, if adopted, will be implemented on February 7, 2010.
Information will be available through Pierce Transit’s website or by calling 253.581.8000.
