Bus System Changes Planned in Seattle
King County Metro and Sound Transit have proposed major changes to bus service on the eastside of Seattle, stretching into suburban communities outside of the city as well.
"King County Metro and Sound Transit are proposing a significant restructure to routes on the Eastside, which would affect communities stretching from Bellevue to Bothell, Woodinville, and Redmond," reports Stephen Fesler.
"The proposal would simplify the route structure and offer more reliable, frequent service to riders by creating six new routes and revising three others. The proposal, however, would result in the elimination of 10 routes," adds Fesler."
If approved, the changes would take effect in September 2019. King County is currently soliciting online feedback on the proposed changes.
