A new SunTran bus service route is connecting St. George to Zion National Park. According to information from the City of St. George website, the 42-mile Zion Route is designed to provide an affordable and convenient travel option while aiming to reduce traffic congestion.
The route includes stops in St. George, Washington, Hurricane, La Verkin, Virgin, and Springdale. Buses operate Monday through Saturday from 5:40 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Riders are encouraged to arrive at stops at least five minutes early, as schedules may fluctuate due to traffic.
Fares for the service are $5 for each one-way trip. An unlimited monthly pass is available for $100, which could reduce the cost to approximately $2.50 per ride for commuters traveling five days a week. Payments, which must be made on the bus, are accepted via cash, credit card, and Venmo. There is no bus service on Sundays or on holidays.
The Zion Route serves as a public transit connection across multiple locations including Washington, Hurricane, La Verkin, Virgin, and Springdale.
