In 2009, TriMet's Westside Express Service (WES) commuter rail line began connecting with SMART buses at Wilsonville Station.

Around the same time, a fleet wide color scheme change was made to reflect the new SMART logo and acronym, and to promote the new transit center and WES Commuter Rail.

Route 1X goes south on I-5 all the way to Salem, where riders can transfer to Salem-Keizer Transit (Cherriots) and operations are shared with Cherriots; the 2X heads North to Tualatin where riders can connect to TriMet; and Route 3X goes southeast to the city of Canby, connecting with Canby Area Transit.

[citation needed] On September 23, 2019, as part of other service improvements, the 2X route, which previously ran all the way North on I-5 to the Barbur Transit Center in Portland, was cut back to only go as far as the Tualatin Park & Ride.
