• Determine your route and departure time. Then go to the bus stop at least 5 minutes before the bus is scheduled to arrive.  
• As the bus approaches, check the destination sign for the route destination you need. Signal to the driver that you want to board the bus.
• As you board, let the driver know your destination. 
• Show the driver your valid GOrge Pass. If your trip requires transferring to another transit provider, tell your driver so they can help you with your connection. 
• One block from your stop, tell the driver where you need to disembark. Drivers of fixed route buses will be announcing stops at the following places:
  • Transfer points with other fixed routes. 
  • Major intersections or destinations. 
  • Any stop requested by a rider with a disability. 
  • Sufficient intervals along a route to orient a rider with a visual disability to their location. 

You must carry your GOrge Pass with you onto the bus, either in printed form or on the Token Transit app on your smartphone. Forgot your pass? The driver will take exact change instead. 

GOrge Passes and tickets may be purchased at any transit provider office. Or download the Token Transit app on your smartphone. You can also pay cash for a single ride. Note that our drivers do not carry cash, so exact change is required.

Dial-A-Ride is NOT a service covered by the GOrge Pass. (Dial-A-Ride public transit vehicles can pick you up at your home and take you wherever you need to go within the service area and sometimes between counties. Visit gorgetranslink.com/dial-a-ride-options for information about each transit provider’s Dial-A-Ride services and fares.)

All buses have either lifts or ramps for accessibility to riders in a mobility device, and our drivers are specially trained to assist them. Seating on our vehicles is prioritized for people with disabilities and for seniors.

ADA Complementary Paratransit is available in the City of Hood River. Contact CAT for more details at (541) 386-4202 or visit rideCATbus.org to complete the required registration.

While our buses are accessible for those using mobility devices, we understand there may be other policies or procedures that make it difficult for riders to use our transit services. Any rider may request a reasonable modification if it allows them better access to our buses. Whenever feasible, a modification request should be made in advance. To request a modification, please call us at (833) 3GO-PASS.

We are committed to ensuring that no person is excluded from using our transit services, denied benefits, or discriminated against based on race, color, national origin, religion, age, marital status, gender, sexual orientation or disability.
