Individual trips may be grouped with other trips to the same or nearby destinations. For riders planning a trip for a scheduled appointment or to connect to another Kitsap Transit bus or ferry departure, the trip will be scheduled to meet those specific time needs. For trips with no specific time constraints, riders may be asked to adjust their desired trip time to coordinate with other scheduled trips in their area.

Traveling in a large group?

Sunday on-demand service is open to anyone but isn’t designed for large groups. You can request a ride for up to six (6) passengers at a time. If you are making a reservation by phone, please notify the reservationist of the total number of passengers.
