COAST will be closed on Monday, May 25th as we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. 🇺🇸

There will be no bus service or administrative office hours on Memorial Day. Regular service will resume on Tuesday.

As we remember those who served, we wish our riders and community a safe and meaningful holiday.

🚍 Give yourself the gift of time.

What would you do with a few extra minutes each day? Read a book, catch up on emails, listen to your favorite podcast, or simply relax?

When you commute by bus, you can leave the driving to us and enjoy a more peaceful start (and end) to your day.

Curious if taking the bus could work for your commute? Visit www.coastbus.org to find out if riding with us is right for you!

COAST employees gathered today at Dover City Hall for our annual spring staff meeting.

We are so grateful for the dedication of our staff and their willingness to meet on a Sunday (the only day COAST is closed) to get important organizational updates and information.

We are only eight days away from the start of the 2026 B2B CommuteSMART Commuter Challenge kicking off!

If you are tired of the high cost of gas, use the month of May to challenge yourself to consider other ways you could commute to work. Often other ways of commuting can be more relaxing, affordable and just plain fun. They also can be a great way to build a little more exercise into your day.

Join your company team, or start one, by signing up at https://commutesmartnh.agilemile.com/seacoast, then start planning ways you might want to try smart commuting, and starting May 1 take the leap and begin logging your miles. Logged trips can win you prizes, and earn your company a coveted CommuteSMART Seacoast trophy and bragging rights.

Join the fun and challenge yourself try try smart commuting this year. Or recommit to smart commuting again. What do you have to lose - other than more money at the gas pump?
