Kauai County officials opened a new park and ride facility last week in Kilauea. 

North Shore residents and visitors can park their cars at Anaina Hou, and ride to town on The Kaua’i Bus.

Those heading south can catch Route 400 Monday to Friday, 6:25 a.m. to 8:25 p.m. on an hourly basis. Weekend and holiday service is offered 7:25, 8:25 and 10:25 a.m. and in the afternoons at 12:25, 2:25 and 4:25 p.m.

Northbound riders can take Route 500 Monday to Friday, 7:34 a.m. to 10:34 p.m. on an hourly basis. Weekend and holiday hours are 7:34, 9:34 and 11:34 a.m. and 1:34, 3:34 and 5:34 p.m.

But those using the new park and ride need to call the Kaua’i Bus at 241-6410 to arrange a pickup or drop-off. Or the passenger can inform the bus driver of the need to be dropped off at the Anaina Hou. That is because the facility is not directly on the bus routes.
