It’s time for A Better Cherriots. As the project name suggests, Cherriots is working to provide better bus service in Salem-Keizer and the surrounding region. We have some VERY exciting changes coming this September: the largest service enhancement in Cherriots history! Read about the details of our plan for later weekday service and Saturday service below.
Most Cherriots Local routes will start operating later on weekdays starting September 3. The last trips of the evening will leave the transit centers at 11 p.m. Almost all of the Cherriots Local routes will also operate on Saturdays starting September 7, generally at reduced levels of service from weekday service.

We started Saturday service off with a huge party at the Downtown Transit Center. We gave away prizes, had food trucks available, brought in a balloon artist, and even invited Caesar the No Drama Llama! We also heard from General Manager Allan Pollock, Cherriots Board President Ian Davidson, Salem Mayor Chuck Bennett, Keizer Mayor Cathy Clark, and Senator Peter Courtney. It was a great way to start a month full of free rides on Saturdays!
