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 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.
