With the opening of the new Maui Bus Kahului Transit Center on Vevau Street on Nov. 20, there will be minor changes to the fixed route services, according to the county’s Department of Transportation.
All Maui Bus services operating from Queen Kaahumanu Center will relocate to the new transit center once it opens. The last day of service at Queen Kaahumanu Center will be Nov. 19.
Changes to the Maui bus fixed route service:
• All Maui Bus fixed routes will have minor time changes. Most bus stops will be a few minutes earlier than the current schedule so riders should check the updated schedule for new estimated pickup times.
• The Kihei Islander and Kihei Villager will add one additional trip in the evening:
- A new 8:30 p.m. departure from Kahului Transit Center returning at 10:30 p.m.
- New 9 p.m. departure from Maalaea Harbor Village returning at 9:55 p.m.
- An 8:30 p.m. departure from Queen Kaahumanu Center was previously added to the West Maui Express route to Lahaina/Kaanapali and will also continue from the Kahului Transit Center
• The Waihee Villager will not service bus stops on Kea Street, South Papa Avenue and Wahinepio Avenue.
The Maui Bus ADA Paratransit Service will have later hours of service in the evenings from Central Maui to Lahaina and Kihei.
Maui Bus general fares are $2 per boarding or $4 for a daily pass. Monthly passes and fare-free rates are also available.
