Edmonds Community College

Janette Maxson won the Fall iPod drawing.

There are a lot of reasons to ride Community Transit. Everyone can save cash, avoid parking problems and reduce pollution by taking the bus once in awhile. But for students, staff and faculty at Edmonds Community College, there’s one more big reason to ride: the EdPass bus sticker. Oh, and a chance to win an iPod Nano in 2008.

EdPass example

For students, a quarterly EdPass bus sticker is free – the cost is already covered by student fees. Simply ask for the sticker each quarter when you get your EdPass validation sticker at the Cashier’s Office in Lynnwood Hall.

Staff and faculty get three months for the price of one when they purchase a quarterly bus sticker for $45. Once your have your updated EdPass validation sticker, just go to the Cashier’s Office to purchase the bus sticker. And don’t worry about getting stuck at work if you have an emergency or unexpected late night. Community Transit offers college employees participating in the campus Commute Trip Reduction program a free “guaranteed ride home” taxi ride in those situations.

Go Convenient

More than 300 buses a day serve the Edmonds Community College Transit Center directly. Just blocks from campus, Community Transit buses run every 15 minutes up and down Highway 99. Other bus routes serve Monroe Hall and the Beresford Building on 196th Street. Community Transit buses also serve the college’s Business and Training Center in south Everett. Click here for a map.

Go Easy

Getting an EdPass bus sticker means you are always ready to hop on the bus, even If you just spent your last dime on books, tunes or car repair. You don’t need to ride the bus every day, but the sticker is good for unlimited rides on Community Transit service in Snohomish County. You also get a 30% discount on Community Transit bus service to King County destinations like the University District and Downtown Seattle. To be exact, your EdPass counts $1.25 towards the fare on Community Transit commuter service – you pay the difference in cash.

Go Green

Sorry, but your EdPass is not good on other bus systems such as Sound Transit ST Express, King County Metro or Everett Transit. Still, paying for a bus ride is lots cheaper than filling your gas tank.

Walk or bike to your neighborhood bus stop or park & ride and create no personal greenhouse gas emissions or pollution. Every bus has a bike rack, and Edmonds Community College has bike racks or safe, weatherproof bike lockers you can use on campus. Visit the EdPass office in Brier Hall for more information.

Go Social

Lots of Edmonds Community College students use Community Transit – more than 1,500 boardings a day use the EdPass. Or, find a friend and carpool to campus – there’s designated carpool parking for those permitted through the Security Office in Meadowdale Hall.

For help finding a carpool, register with the regional ridematching database. It also lists carpools to concerts, sporting events and skiing!

Go Everywhere

Community Transit buses run 365 days a year, serving every city in Snohomish County, every library, every ferry dock. Go shopping, go visiting, go to work.

Go Ahead

The college offers the services of a transportation coordinator to students and employees to answer general questions about bus routes, rideshare matching services, carpool information or other transportation services that might help people commute to campus. The coordinator works in the EdPass office in Brier Hall. For more information, call (425) 640-1143 or stop by the EdPass office.
