The City of Silverton is considering different ways they can enhance public transit services in and around the city. Please take a few minutes to let them know what you would like to see!

The City of Silverton is exploring ways to enhance our local transportation services, and we want to hear from you! In collaboration with AMMA Transit and Jarret Walker, we are conducting a thorough transit study to evaluate our current system, identify service gaps, and develop solutions to better meet the needs of our community.

At present, Silverton offers two main public transit options: the Silver Trolley, which operates Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:45 PM, and the Cherriots 20X Bus, which provides multiple daily trips between Silverton and Salem. While these services are valuable, we know there are some limitations.

We're considering several service enhancements, including extended hours of operation, Saturday service, broader route boundaries, and more flexible ride-booking options through a mobile app or by phone. We’re also evaluating the potential for a fixed route connecting to Mt. Angel, or a shared ride service that accommodates multiple passengers.

We invite you to take a few moments to complete our community survey and share your thoughts and ideas. You may either scan the QR code, use the link in our bio, or stop by our office (410 N Water Street) for a paper copy.
