Our story
Pierce Transit was founded in 1979, when local voters approved a 0.3 percent sales tax to fund public transportation. We are now the second largest transit agency in the state of Washington [more].
Our mission
Pierce Transit connects communities with safe, reliable, customer-friendly transit options.
Our services
We serve 450 square miles of Pierce County with local and express bus service, specialized transportation for people with disabilities, vanpools and rideshare programs.

The Board of Commissioners meets the second Monday of each month
at 4:00 p.m. at Pierce Transit headquarters, 3701 96th Street SW, Lakewood,
