Visit C. Oregon awarded $40K for pilot Bend-Sunriver-Bachelor luxury shuttle
Visit Central Oregon
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) Visit Central Oregon, in partnership with Oregon-based charter company Northwest Navigator Luxury Coaches, has been awarded a $40,000 match by Travel Oregon’s Destination Ready investment program to run a pilot shuttle service in Sunriver and Bend called “Navigate Oregon.”
Destination Ready applicants were encouraged to apply for “shovel-ready” projects that bolster tourism recovery efforts throughout the state with a focus on mitigating challenged visitor experiences due to COVID-19.
As a pilot program, Navigate Oregon will serve dual purposes. Industry partners will have a high-quality transportation resource to refer destination visitors who are not aware of required parking reservations at Mt. Bachelor, one of many new COVID measures to manage volume at the resort.
