Want ride-hailing at bus prices in Arlington? Let Community Transit know

There’s only one bus route that rolls into Darrington.

Community Transit Route 230 has a host of stops during its 28-mile journey between downtown Darrington and the Smokey Point Transit Center. It’s nearly the same distance between Everett and Seattle, albeit with less traffic as the journey links people from the Cascade mountains to I-5.

But the bus only operates as a commuter run with one morning and one evening jaunt in each direction.

Service pilot projects in early development by Community Transit are looking to change there, as well as in Arlington and Lake Stevens. What they look like and how they operate is up to input from residents. They could be community vans, ride-hailing in specific zones or facilitating a bike-sharing or scooter-sharing program.
