List of Community Transit bus routes
Community Transit is a public transit agency serving Snohomish County, part of the Seattle metropolitan area in the U.S. state of Washington, with the exception of the city of Everett. As of September 2017, it operates 46 fixed bus routes, split between three service types: bus rapid transit under the Swift brand, local buses between communities in the county seven days a week, and peak-only commuter buses to Seattle, the University of Washington, and the Boeing Everett Factory; First Transit, a subcontractor providing bus drivers for Community Transit's commuter routes, also operates all-day Sound Transit Express service to Seattle and Bellevue. CT served 9,096,345 riders on its routes in 2013, covering an area of 1,305 square miles (3,380 km2) with an operating budget of $114 million.[1][2]
Local routes
Community Transit has 27 local routes serving its member cities and towns in Snohomish County, of which the majority run throughout the day at a headway ranging from 15 minutes to 2 hours. Local routes are numbered from 100 to 280, with the 100s serving southwestern Snohomish County and the 200s serving northern and eastern Snohomish County.[3]:38–145 The Swift Blue Line, designated internally as Route 701,[4] is a bus rapid transit route serving the State Route 99 corridor between Shoreline and Everett Station, running at a headway of 12 to 20 minutes.[5] A second route, the Swift Green Line, opened in 2019 and serves the Bothell–Everett Highway and Airport Road between Bothell and the Boeing Everett Factory.[6]
Several routes provide peak-only express service to the Boeing Everett Factory from outlying communities,[3][7] historically denoted by a "-7" ending in reference to the Boeing 7x7 series jet airliners assembled at the factory.
