Transportation

The Estacada Transportation Department is responsible for safely transporting the students to and from school, as well as ensuring the students make it to and from sporting events and field trips. The Estacada Transportation Department strives to support students. Our drivers are the first contact the district has with most students on a daily basis. We pride ourselves on learning each students name. By starting each students day off with a smile and warm greeting we hope to set the stage for their day. Transportation is tasked with covering a 750 square mile area. 13 different bus routes are used daily to accomplish this.

Do you have a question or need assistance with your student's transportation or routes?

Give us a call at 503-630-8606. We look forward to assisting you. 

2023-24 Bus Routes

• Please allow additional time for buses during the first days of school as we adjust to routes
• Please call our transportation department at 503-630-8606 with any route questions
• Please keep in mind that we do not transport elementary students within one mile of their school and secondary students within 1.5 miles of their school in accordance with Oregon Revised Statute 327.043

Our regular bus routes and snow routes can be found on the page below. Families are notified of bus delays, snow routes, and additional alterations via our ParentSquare mass communication platform. Here are some instructions on how to download the ParentSquare app, where you can customize your communication, ensure that you receive text message updates, and more. We recommend downloading ParentSquare and opting in to receive text messages for easy to access notifications in real-time. We also communicate delays and closures via phone calls, email, our website, and FlashAlert. 

2022-2023 Snow Routes

Snow routes have been developed to eliminate only the stops which often have unsafe driving conditions during bad weather. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE SNOW ROUTES LISTED BELOW MAY BE ALTERED THE DAY-OF BASED ON THAT DAY'S ROAD CONDITIONS. THESE ALTERATIONS WILL BE COMMUNICATED VIA PARENTSQUARE, OUR DISTRICT MASS COMMUNICATION PLATFORM. 

Radio, Television, Parent Square and Flash Alert announcements are made about school closures, late openings, and snow routes.

• A school closure means all activities are canceled as well.
• An announcement of “late opening” will be 2 hours later than usual.
• Buses may be on snow routes if there is a late opening due to inclement weather.
• Buses may be on snow routes when schools open on time.
• When a snow route is in effect, students must meet the bus at the snow route stop, even though the regular stop may be accessible.
• When buses are on AM snow routes, they will also be on PM snow routes.

If you have questions, please contact the Transportation Department at 503-630-8606.
