A reminder from Community Transit that SWIFT bus service between Everett and Shoreline will increase in frequency starting Monday.
Swift Blue Line (Everett – Shoreline)
On Monday-Friday, the Swift Blue Line will operate service every 10 minutes between 6 a.m. and 7 p.m. Buses will continue to run every 20 minutes early mornings, nights and weekends.
The change to a bus every 10 minutes from every 12 minutes increases service by 20 percent and improves route connections. A new early morning weekday trip in each direction will be added starting at 4:20 a.m. No changes to weekend schedules.
Community Transit is also reminding riders that fares are going up starting October 1st.

Fare Policy Change
A new fare policy will take effect October 1 that charges commuter fares for all riders of 400 or 800 series routes, regardless of where you board or de-board. If you are riding these buses within Snohomish County, you must pay the commuter fare. This policy was adopted by the Community Transit Board of Directors last fall.
