Service improvements start Monday, September 29

On Monday, September 29th, VRT is adding an extra trip on Route 10 Hill Road, installing a new bus stop downtown, and relocating a bus stop on Route 3 Vista to add travel options, improve access to key destinations, and make connections more convenient. 


An Extra AFTERNOON Trip on Route 10 Hill Road

You asked, and we listened! We’re adding one more afternoon trip on Route 10 to give you more flexibility in your evening commute. 

New departure: 5:45 p.m. from Main Street Station 

Other key times:  

  • Hill & 16th at 5:57 p.m. 
  • 36th & Shasta at 6:03 p.m. 
  • State & Ellen’s Ferry at 6:11 p.m. 

Previously, the last trip left downtown at 4:45 p.m., making this update a great option for downtown commuters. 


New Downtown Stop at State & 7th 

We’re adding a new bus stop at the northwest corner of State Street and 7th Street for Route 9 State Street and Route 10 Hill Road. 

 

This new stop improves access to destinations like the Idaho State Capitol, Cecil D. Andrus Park, and surrounding offices and businesses. 


Route 3 Vista Stop Relocation 

To improve stop pairing and rider convenience, we’re moving the bus stop AB306 at Vista & Spaulding one block north near the crosswalk at Vista & Nez Perce. 

These updates may be small, but they add up to better service, better access, and better connections for our riders. 

Previews of the service improvements are shown on a blue background. Route 3 stop at Vista and Spaulding has moved to Vista & Nex Perce; a stop was added at State & 7th to route 9 State Street and route 10 Hill Road; Route 10 Hill Road has an additional trip added in the afternoon.
