Cherriots 1-2-2018

Every four months – January, May and September – Cherriots implements service changes based on input from customers, transit operators, Cherriots employees and performance monitoring results. Here is what has changed as of January 2, 2018.

Cherriots no longer operates Route 2X

The Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, who paid Cherriots to provide this service in the past, replaced Route 2X with service operated by Tillamook County Transportation District. TCTD Route 60X and TCTD Route 70X now park in Bay E at the Downtown Transit Center.

Big changes in West Salem

Instead, West Salem is now served with regular bus service. See below for details on the rerouted Route 16 and the new Routes 26 and 27. CLICK HERE for complete details on all West Salem changes.
