Jay Armstrong

Mahalo to Jay Armstrong for submitting this photo taken on the 450E (through the window!) just before crossing the Wailua Bridge. Jay says, "Riding the bus gives us a chance to take in all the beauty of Kauai." Mahalo Jay, for sharing your beautiful photo with us!

Michael Seeley

Michael Seeley takes the bus to KCC! As a full-time college student, and Kekaha resident, Michael spent up to $400 a month in gas by driving to school. But now Michael rides The Kauai Bus, which has only added 10 minutes to his daily commute. In turn, riding the bus not only saves him money but it gives him an extra hour to study, and helps to alleviate traffic congestion by taking his car off the road. Michael says, "I will continue to use the Kauai Bus for as long as the bus service is available."
