What is Via?
Via is an on-demand transit system that takes multiple passengers heading in the same direction and books them into a shared vehicle. Think of Via as a bus that’s smart enough to come when you want it and where you want it. Using our app for iPhone or Android, you can select your pick up and drop off, and we’ll do the rest.
In King County, Via is a first mile, last mile service. That means that all trips will be to or from light rail stations or defined Points of Interest within the operating areas. As Via is a corner-to-corner service, we’ll pick you up at a light rail station and then drop you off within a couple blocks of your requested destination, and vice versa. This helps us ensure that even with multiple pickups, trip times are short and efficient.
