Tillamook County Transportation expands service

The second bus will add an early morning departure from Tillamook at 5 a.m. as well as an extra late afternoon departure from Tillamook around 4 p.m. and Portland at 7 p.m. 

Mike Reed, the district’s interim director, said that he hoped the route change would mark the last scheduling change for the district’s routes after several years of flux.

He also said that the district hoped that the new timetable would help Tillamook residents better access early morning flights from PDX and facilitate same-day roundtrips both ways.

The fare update included a simplification of the fare table, with all in town rides costing one dollar after the update. 

Students and children under 18 as well as seniors and the disabled will still ride for free.
