Bus service from Smith River to be expanded
|
Local residents will soon be able to ride the bus from Smith River as far north as North Bend, Ore., five days a week.
The Curry Public Transit’s Coastal Express will run from Monday through Friday starting Nov. 9, an increase from three days a week. The Coastal Express currently runs three times a day, starting at Smith River Rancheria. The route stops in each city along the way. Fares are $4 per city segment, for example from Smith River to Brookings. Riders over 60 years old, students and those with disabilities ride for half price. Monthly passes and punch passes are available. State and federal funding for rural transportation helped pay for expanding the bus service. American Recovery and Reinvestment Act grants helped replace two old buses for Curry Public Transit. For schedules and more information, call 541-412-8806 or 800-921-2871. Schedules are also available at www.currypublictransit.org . |
