Eugene, OR. — A new regional transit option connecting communities along the 99W corridor will officially launch Monday, November 24. The pilot project, known as 99 Vine, is a partnership between Yamhill County and Benton County and will offer fareless weekday bus service between McMinnville and Eugene, including two stops in Corvallis.
