YAKIMA, Wash. — Are you ready for another annual trip to the Central Washington State Fair? It’s going to be easier than ever to get there with a little help from shuttles operated by the City of Yakima.
According to an announcement made by city officials, Yakima Transit is planning to offer free service to State Fair Park for the entirety of its 10-day operation. From Gateway Center, the shuttle will pick up passengers at the Park & Ride and at locations between the south entrances into Gateway Center on North Fair Avenue.
The schedule below was outlined by city officials. As you’ll find, the shuttle begins a half hour before opening and stops a half hour after the Central Washington State Fair closes each night.
