Sarah Crook proposed extending this service with the introduction of the Gorge Pass, which would allow students to travel for free throughout the entire Gorge region, including to Portland and Vancouver. 

It’s just another day for The Link bus drivers in The Dalles, Everyday the Red and Blue routes circle The Dalles, helping send folks on their way, connecting them to their friends, their families, their jobs, and their community. 
Everybody rides. Some folks who get on the bus are regulars, other’s one-timers, or first-timers.

The proposed changes are: 1) to decrease Fixed Routes fares within The Dalles city limits from $1.50 to $1.00 per one-way ride, and 2) to increase Dial-a-Ride service fares within The Dalles city limits from $1.50 to $2.00 per one-way ride. These changes are scheduled to go into effect on May 29, 2023,  but could occur later if extra time is needed to address any concerns brought out by this process.
