Happy Pride Month! [ #pride ]

Peak weekday routes 16, 232, 237, 301, 304 and 320 will be suspended through July 14

King County Metro will continue to suspend peak weekday routes 16, 232, 237, 301, 304 and 320 through July 14 due to ongoing staff and bus availability. Some individual weekday bus trips also are canceled. Riders have alternatives available during these suspensions (listed below) and we will provide regular updates to keep you informed about your transit service and options.

Metro has shifted buses among its seven bases and as a result has improved trip reliability across the county. Metro continues to train and hire bus operators and mechanics to deliver buses and transit services to your bus stop. Due to ongoing bus and staff availability challenges, summer service is likely to remain in the ongoing 95% range ? more than 10,600-weekday trips ? for several weeks while we repair and restore bus fleet for service.

Read a snippet of the article written by Carrie Lee, that was published in?Intelligent Transport [ [link removed] ], a European-based magazine that focuses on urban public transportation throughout the world. Carrie, who was Metro?s Sustainability and Climate Program Manager, is now the Greenhouse Gas Emission Program Manager in the King County Executive?s Climate Office. Full article can be found on Metro Matters blog [ [link removed] ].?

Every week, more than one million people use?King County Metro [ [link removed] ]?s buses, on-demand services, paratransit vans, water taxis and other modes to get to where they need to go. Metro serves 37 cities in Washington state, including Seattle, and a county with a population that?s greater than 15 U.S. states.

We?re also proud to be an industry leader in how we deliver our service sustainably. Our transition to a zero-emission fleet powered by renewable energy is part of King County?s holistic approach to combat climate change. We are on track to be one of the first large transit agencies in North America with a 100% zero-emission fleet by 2035.
