Project Schedule and Events

PUBLIC MEETING - Transit Plan Update

Please join us to learn about the Woodburn Transit Plan Update project, review findings from the Existing Conditions report and share your ideas about transit needs in and around Woodburn.

This is the first of two public meetings scheduled for this project. All interested community members are invited to attend.

Woodburn Transit Plan Update

Please review the Transit Plan Update page at this location: Woodburn Transit Plan Update. In an effort to help plan for Woodburn’s future, we are conducting a survey on transportation choices and preferences. We plan to use this information to help the City of Woodburn better provide transit services in the community. Your responses are appreciated and will be kept confidential. It is your input that helps us bring you great transportation. Please take the time to fill out one of the surveys - whether it is online or printed from your computer and mailed or brought in to the transit office.

About Us

We have moved from the City Hall Annex Building. We are now located at 202 Young St., and our business hours are 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, except from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. We can be contacted at 982-5233. The Dial-a-Ride number is 982-7433, and the TDD Phone is 982-7433.

The Transit Bus operates on a route that covers the major areas of the city once an hour. The bus runs Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. (See Bus Schedule) The bus does not operate on Saturdays, Sundays, or major holidays. Bus fare is $1.00 and children age six (6) and under ride free when accompanied by an adult. Discount passes are available from the driver for $15.00 and are good for 20 rides. This represents up to 25% savings! Bus schedules are available on the bus or at City Hall.

Dial-a-Ride Program - The transportation for elderly and disable persons, who cannot utilize the fixed Transit bus route, is provided by the Dial-a-Ride program. This service utilizes a paratransit van that is operated on Mondays through Fridays. Requests for Reservations can be taken up to a month in advanced but a minimum of 24 hours notice is required and can be made by calling 982-7433. The van provides door-to-door transportation for local shopping and medical appointments. The Daily Shopper fare is $3.00.

Dial-a-Ride also arranges for volunteer drivers to take elderly or disabled Woodburn residents to medical appointments in the local area, Salem and Portland. Reservations can be taken up to a month in advanced but a minimum of 24 hours notice is required and can be made by calling 982-7433. Donations are accepted for this service. Any senior citizen, 60 or over, interested in being a volunteer Dial-a-Ride driver, please contact the Dial-a-Ride Coordinator at 982-5233.

Other local and regional transportation options can be found at the Cherriots Rideshare site. The site is operated by the City of Salem, and is an excellent resource for carpool and vanpool information and listings, and a wide variety of other options available to residents of the Mid-Willamette Valley region.

Intercity transportation is provided in the Woodburn area by the Chemeketa Area Regional Transportation System (CARTS). Four routes are offered daily starting in Hubbard, with two stops in Woodburn, and ending in Salem at Courthouse Square. The CARTS schedule is available at their web site.
