In honor of our Swift Green Line opening this week, we are celebrating "Green Week" with a series of stories about our Swift service.
If you’ve been wondering where you could take a selfie looking like you’re driving a Community Transit bus, check out some cool student transit art, and witness an historic Snohomish County public transportation milestone, look no further.

Join us for the official launch of the Swift Green Line Sunday, March 24, from
11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at McCollum Park on 128th Street. We’re throwing a free
public celebration with music, food trucks, Swift
cookies, caricatures and more. Yes, Swift
cookies!
KIRO 7’s Tracy Taylor will emcee the event. Speakers
include Congressman Rick Larsen, State Senator Marko Liias, Snohomish County
Executive Dave Somers, Snohomish County Councilmember Terry Ryan, Edmonds Mayor Dave Earling and Community Transit CEO Emmett Heath.
The big event will be the launch of the first Swift Green Line bus, which will depart
McCollum Park at noon. Regular service on the Swift Green Line will also start at noon from both ends of the
route, Canyon Park and Seaway Transit Center.
Don’t try to catch
a Swift Green Line bus before noon
that day!
With two Swift
lines running every 10 minutes weekdays, this will be a major improvement for
transit travel in south Snohomish County. You can read more about the Swift Green Line, and its connection to
the Blue Line at Airport Road & Highway 99 at www.communitytransit,org/SwiftGreen.
Community Transit is making other service changes this
coming week, especially to routes serving Boeing. Check out those changes at www.communitytransit.org/NewService.
See you on Sunday!
