Ride with Community Van

You may have seen the multicolored Metro Flex vehicles driving around town, but did you know there is another King County Metro travel option available for Sammamish residents?

Community Van is a volunteer-driven transportation service, driven for the community by the community. This program is designed to provide residents with customized options for getting around when bus routes don’t meet your needs.

How to Ride

Submit a trip request: Via email, phone call,

text, or online form. Minimum two business days’ notice.

Volunteer match: Your trip is matched with a pool of vetted and trained volunteer drivers in the area to determine availability. The sooner a trip is requested the more likely it is to be accepted.

Ride: Receive a confirmation and be connected to a driver.

Community Van trips are coordinated by our partners at Hopelink and open to everyone regardless of age, income, or ability. There is no application process required.
