City of Yakima issued the following announcement on Mar. 11.
Due to ongoing federal requirements, Yakima Transit employees and passengers will need to continue wearing masks/face coverings while on board the bus and utilizing Dial-A-Ride services.
The mask requirement related to public transportation is in place through April 18th, 2022 per a federal Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announcement yesterday, Thursday. The federal mask requirement may be extended beyond April 18th.
