About the Transportation Program

Our Hyde Shuttle program is expanding!

On May 21st, we will introduce a new van service in Federal Way.  Like all of our community shuttles, the service is for seniors 55 years of age and older and people with disabilities of all ages.  The Shuttle will offer free door-to-door service throughout the Federal Way city limits, transporting riders to the Federal Way Community Center, grocery shopping, the library, bank, to visit a friend, cultural and social activities, medical appointments, any local errands.  Riders register for service by phone; there is no application to fill out or in-person eligibility screening.  Riders may request service up to 30 days in advance and same day service on a space available basis.  The Shuttles are lift-equipped for people who have difficulty using stairs or use a mobility aid.  Hours of operation are 9am to 4pm.  The Shuttles are free, although donations are accepted.  We will start similar service in SeaTac and Tukwila on June 4th, and we just added a second vehicle to our Renton run.

Transportation—The road to independence
