WTA will provide free rides on all bus trips within Whatcom County from August 11 through August 20, 2022. 

For riders headed to the Northwest Washington Fair, WTA will be offering a special 10 pm bus from the fairgrounds back to Bellingham. This 10 pm bus is available on weeknights and Saturdays only. It will depart from a bus stop across the street from the fairgrounds, between Bank of the Pacific and Fairside Drive.  It will make two stops: Cordata Station, located near Whatcom Community College, and downtown's Bellingham Station.

Like all rides during Free Fare Days, rides on this special 10 pm bus are free.

In addition to the special 10 pm bus (weekdays and Saturdays only), WTA's Route 26 provides regular bus service to the fairgrounds between the hours of 6:30 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. on weekdays, from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Saturdays, and 8:05 a.m. to 6:05 p.m. on Sundays.​

Riders wishing to park and ride can park for free at WTA's Cordata Station. Parking is first come, first served, and overnight parking is not allowed.

In addition to free rides on fixed route buses, all rides are free on paratransit, and on WTA's Lynden Hop.
