Online open house: Weigh in on proposed locations for a new bus driver training facility

In order to meet the growing demand for high-quality transit services in Kitsap County, Kitsap Transit plans to build a permanent, modern training facility. This new facility will ensure that trainers and trainees can learn and practice bus driving skills safely, effectively, and efficiently year-round. Kitsap Transit does not currently have a permanent facility for training bus operators.

Kitsap Transit has been working since spring 2024 on an iterative process of scouting potential locations for the facility. This fall Kitsap Transit has narrowed the search to four sites, three in Bremerton and one in Port Orchard. For more information, see our blog post here.

If you would like to weigh in on the Kitsap Transit siting study process and the four possible locations for the training facility, please visit our online open house. There, you will be able to learn more about the project and share your thoughts in a survey. The open house will remain open until October 31.

We are also holding a Zoom briefing on Wednesday, Oct. 9, from 5:30–6:30 PM, where you can hear a presentation from the project team and ask questions. You can register to attend the briefing on the open house page.
