The TIP details the agency’s complete program of potentially federally funded projects for 2026-2029. It includes projects also programmed through the Thurston Regional Planning Council (TRPC) and the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC).

The TDP summarizes the major or significant events that affected delivery of transit services in the Thurston County Public Transportation Benefit Area (PTBA). It also illustrates projected changes in local transit services during the next five years based on known facts and forecasted trends.

Consistent with the 2025 Budget and forecast of Planned Operating Changes programmed in the 2024–2029 Transit Development Plan (TDP), Intercity Transit intends to increase fixed route service on Sept. 7, 2025, by approximately 25,000 annual hours, an eight percent increase to the existing volume of service (based on service levels in February 2025).

The growth in service represents a substantive fulfillment of Intercity Transit’s Long-Range Plan and the associated Proposition 1 sales tax measure approved by local voters in November 2018. The changes to service proposed for September 2025 include a system redesign of local transit routes.
 

Intercity Transit will change fixed route service on September 7, 2025, by introducing two new express commuter routes between Olympia-Lacey and Lakewood in Pierce County. The change also includes the discontinuation of Route 620. This document includes an analysis of minority and low-income populations directly affected by the adjustments to service.
