Effective June 14, 2021, we will be making significant improvements to the SouthWest Route schedule! We are expanding daily service from Klamath Falls all the way to Grants Pass to provide easier, more comfortable travel through the region.
Westbound passengers departing from Grants Pass will board the POINT in front of Newman United Methodist Church on NE B Street. Passengers can use the bus shelter in front of Anne Basker Auditorium while waiting for the POINT. Passengers may continue to ride Josephine Community Transit’s Route 50 for free between Cave Junction and Grants Pass on Monday through Friday. Transfers to and from Josephine Community Transit will continue to take place at the Anne Basker Auditorium bus stop, just across the street from our new pick up and drop off location.
This schedule change will also allow for more restroom breaks and improve daily connections to southbound Amtrak Coast Starlight train service from Klamath Falls at 10:00 pm and northbound Greyhound #1446 bus service from Medford at 12:20 pm.
Effective June 1, 2021, the NorthWest Route schedule will have earlier departure times due to recently announced highway construction occurring at night on U.S. 26. The new schedule will remain in effect until October 1, 2021 because of multiple construction projects occurring throughout the summer on U.S. 26. The changes will ensure passengers don’t experience delays while riding the POINT and that all our critical connections with other services at Union Station can be maintained. Thank you for your patience!
Effective May 24, 2021, we’re resuming two daily Cascades Route buses in coordination with upcoming changes to Amtrak Cascades train service! These runs have been suspended since April 2020 due to low demand as a result of the pandemic. Additional schedule changes will be made to the 5504 northbound bus on the same day.
These changes will result in new and better connections with the NorthWest Route and train service in Portland, as well as new connections with Pacific Crest Bus Lines service in Eugene, all of which can booked together for seamless travel on a single ticket purchased from Amtrak. All social distancing and mask requirements remain in effect. Download or print the new schedule.
