TheBus Route Modifications and Updates
Due to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic, TheBus will continue to operate on the Modified State Holiday Schedule; providing flexibility to add more service in areas in need of greater frequency and to allow safe social and physical distancing.
Starting Sunday, August 23, the following changes to TheBus routes will be put in effect:
Route changes: 1L, 67 & 413
Schedule changes: 69 and 415
Discontinued: 2L
Weekday: All other routes will remain on Modified State Holiday Schedule
Weekends: TheBus will operate on Saturday and Sunday Schedule
To provide quicker travel times across Honolulu, Route 1L will be realigned to operate between Kalihi Transit Center and Hawaii Kai using North King Street through Kalihi instead of School Street. Between Kalihi Transit Center and Kahala Mall, Route 1L will make very limited stops at select destinations and transfer points, servicing half the stops of a comparable Route 1. For a listing of Route 1L’s limited stops, please check here or call (808) 848-5555.
Admission Day Holiday – Friday, August 21
City buses will be on State Holiday Schedule
Additional trips will be provided along the entire Route 2 to increase capacity and replace discontinued Route 2L trips in the peak hours.
TheBus and TheHandi-Van have taken steps to reduce the risk of infection while riding or operating a transit vehicle. All buses and vans are disinfected daily by wiping down all touch surfaces manually with a strong anti-virus disinfectant and receive nightly disinfecting fogging using an electrostatic spraying system. All drivers are temperature checked daily before their shifts.
