Bus operators, whether driving a fixed route or ACCESS paratransit, make it possible for other people to get to work, school, appointments, groceries or recreation. It's a career with purpose.

On Jan. 31, we recognized our top Worker/Driver, Routed and ACCESS Drivers of the Year.

Our ongoing operator recruitment has been successful thanks in part to a $7,000 hiring incentive for new drivers. We’ve extended the incentive for another year.

Laura Moniz and Andrea Hillman are our Routed and ACCESS Drivers of the Year for 2022.

Starting in July, Kitsap Transit Routed and ACCESS operators will receive higher wages, plus progressive increases over the next three years and a retention bonus.
